slight topic change. for some reason, man pages have a bad reputation. I'm not sure why though. One thing that may help here is a switch to asciidoc for the man page. the biggest benefit here is that the man page is a simple text file that we can link to. and you can link to the latest version in git of it directly and anyone can read it. example: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/evtest/plain/evtest.txt the actual conversion to groff format is done during the build process. drawback - less formatting styles (though asciidoc may provide more than I currently know) and another dependency (which already exists for plenty other packages though, e.g libXi) Cheers, Peter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Free Software Download: Index, Search & Analyze Logs and other IT data in Real-Time with Splunk.
