You are right, the manual should say a few words regarding RCS and SCCS. However, instead of flaming, I suggest to submit a specific bug report to Savannah, for each place in the manual where some terminology or a name of a tool is used before being explained, or without a cross-reference to where it _is_ explained. Submitting documentation bug reports is a much more efficient way of getting the docs improved, because the maintainers do look at the bug tracker when they prepare a new release. TIA (which stands for "Thanks In Advance"). _______________________________________________ Help-make mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-make
