Hi Paul,
So adding the following to basename.c gets me a passable entry in
the manpage:
fputs (_("\
Examples:\n\
basename /usr/foo/lossage/functions.l returns functions.l\n\
basename /usr/foo/lossage/functions.l .l returns functions\n\
basename functions.lisp p returns functions.lis\n\
\n\
"), stdout);
(These examples were actually in a comment at the top of basename.c)
But help2man hasn;t done any bold/italicising of the parameters;
I guess that is OK, but it is not particularly nice and doesn't
follow the recommendations for man pages. Is there something
I'm missing to get help2man to do a nicer job?
Dave
