User manual: correct asciidoc markup for proper alignment of subheadings
Sections 6 and 9.3 of the user manual has some problems with the ascii-doc code for maintaining the prper alignment of subheadings. This patch corrects the asciidoc markup code to solve this problem Signed-off-by: Willem Ferguson <willemferguson@zoology.up.ac.za> Signed-off-by: Dirk Hohndel <dirk@hohndel.org>
