<div class="refsection" title="Description"><a name="id1441641"></a><h2>Description</h2>

<p>Specifies the maximum permitted length of the
<code class="literal">extra3</code> part of the man-page <code class="literal">.TH</code>
title line header/footer. If the <code class="literal">extra3</code> content
exceeds the maxiumum specified, it is truncated down to the maximum
permitted length.</p>

<p>The content of the <code class="literal">extra3</code> field is usually
displayed in the middle header of the page and is typically a "manual
name"; for example, "GTK+ User's Manual" (from the
<code class="literal">gtk-options(7)</code> man page).</p>

<p>The default value for this parameter is reasonable but somewhat
arbitrary. If you are processing pages with long "manual names" -- or
especially if you are processing pages that have both long "title"
parts (command/function, etc. names) <span class="emphasis"><em>and</em></span> long
manual names -- you may want to experiment with changing the value in
order to achieve the correct aesthetic results.</p>
