Hey team. I'm looking at cvs and man pages and stuff.
I notice that two cvs pages - cvs(1) and cvs(5) - don't have SEE ALSO hyperlinks appearing in cgi ... http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cvs&sektion=1&manpath=OpenBSD+Current http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cvs&sektion=5&manpath=OpenBSD+Current ... so I browse mdoc and see this: Xr Link to another manual ... .Xr name section If section is followed by non-punctuation, an Ns is inserted into the token stream. ... and think I'm not used to seeing punctuation after the last link which the two offending man pages have (one has a punctuation which probably isn't good at any rate). So I check against a 5.0 snapshot and the pages square with cgi, viz. the SEE ALSO is formatted differently on the operating system from what I'm used to. Take mdoc and afterboot as examples, they both have cgi hyperlinks and the OS pages are what I'm used to. So I'd like to look at that and the place to start is src ... http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/usr.bin/cvs/cvs.1?rev=1.127 http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/usr.bin/cvs/cvs.5?rev=1.8 ... where I run into other issues. Those man pages are quite different to what I see on the OS and on the web. I readily accept there might be build processes I'm not looking at but is this correct? One difference I'm particularly curious about is the presence of cvsintro.7 both as a file in http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/usr.bin/cvs/ and referred to in the previous cvs files but if I'm looking in the wrong place that would make a lot of sense. Of minor note also is the "page demarcations" on the cgi and the OS, which looks like it's done by Dt, is in lowercase on cvs(5) which is a clear violation of the rules. :] As I apparently can't find the source, however, I can't think about fixing this. I love to be clued in on how this works or correct source for those pages ... Regardless, in terms of formatting, there's an inconsistency between those two man pages and other man pages as they appear on a console which I guess is at least worth noting. Best wishes.
