Hi Branden,

I'd like to know why you did that.

	commit 4b7a0fe5ab5d5155bd499cf9506a91a1f4bc0125

	    src/utils/xtotroff/xtotroff.c: Fix code style nit.
	    
	    * src/utils/xtotroff/xtotroff.c:
	      (CanonicalizeFontName, FontNamesAmbiguous, MapFont, main): Explicitly
	      cast unused return values of printf(3)-family functions to `void`.

I've been updating code to remove those casts, because they don't do
much good.  It's essentially just noise.


Have a lovely night!
Alex
