Fixes for a spelling mistake, a few formatting typo's and an incorrectly rendered form-feed escape-sequence.

ox-man exports the string:

  \\f (=form-feed=)

as:

  $\(\fIform\-feed\fP)

Troff then complains:

  troff:tmp/usr/share/man/man1/mu-view.1:28: warning: special character '\f' not defined

and renders it as:

  $Iform-feed)

Insert a zero-width space character (U+200B) between the \\ and the f.
This causes the string to be exported as:

   \\​f (\fIform\-feed\fP)

which troff renders correctly.
