Hi,
I found a small error in Emacs 18.57 documentation. The Info entry on
Nroff Mode contains:

	Also, try nroff-electric-mode, for automatically inserting
	closing requests for requests that are used in matched pairs.

However, there is no nroff-electric-mode!

I took me quite a while to figure out that there is a mode
named eletric-nroff-mode; no doubt that is what was meant.

When you are in that mode, it is identified as "Nroff Electric";
maybe "Electric Nroff" would be better, just for consistency?
