feed all entries into the spamdb, in all operational modes.

Hello all,
Running GENERIC i386 kernel on on a 64-bit amd machine. Just wondering
whether an upgrade amd64 is warranted. Any opinions?
If so, just upgrade system? Re-compile kernel? Other options?

Please find attached a preliminary rough shell script that does the
job for the faq[0-9]+.html files, keeping track of anchors
appropriately. It is missing pf, ports, and other files, but it's a
starting point.

script to be supporte

lose tagging functionality. That is, compare
Have you looked at:
man col
?
(Especially for the -b option...)
And, for that matter, have you looked at
man col | cat -vet | less

mode, press control-V twice.

hello,
coming from linux, i'm used to read manpages
