Pieter Hintjens 67e02ca8bc Use of named authors on man pages is no longer a good idea since it puts off
contributors and doesn't reflect the real process. I've taken out all named
authors and referred to the contribution policy. Hopefully this will improve
the contributions to the man pages.

NAME
----
zmq_term - terminate 0MQ context
SYNOPSIS
--------
*int zmq_term (void '*context');*
DESCRIPTION
-----------
The _zmq_term()_ function shall terminate the 0MQ context 'context'.
Context termination is performed in the following steps:
1. Any blocking operations currently in progress on sockets open within
'context' shall return immediately with an error code of ETERM. With the
exception of _zmq_close()_, any further operations on sockets open within
'context' shall fail with an error code of ETERM.
2. After interrupting all blocking calls, _zmq_term()_ shall _block_ until the
following conditions are satisfied:
* All sockets open within 'context' have been closed with _zmq_close()_.
* For each socket within 'context', all messages sent by the application
with _zmq_send()_ have either been physically transferred to a network
peer, or the socket's linger period set with the _ZMQ_LINGER_ socket
option has expired.
For further details regarding socket linger behaviour refer to the _ZMQ_LINGER_
option in linkzmq:zmq_setsockopt[3].
This function is deprecated by linkzmq:zmq_ctx_term[3].
RETURN VALUE
------------
The _zmq_term()_ function shall return zero if successful. Otherwise it shall
return `-1` and set 'errno' to one of the values defined below.
ERRORS
------
*EFAULT*::
The provided 'context' was invalid.
*EINTR*::
Termination was interrupted by a signal. It can be restarted if needed.
