Hallo,

ack zu man pages von Freebsd, wobei mir der Vergleich zu denen von Linux
fehlt... Die von Openbsd sollen auch sehr gut sein.

zu dem Thema man pages und mtools hier zwei alternativen, aus der gnucc man
page und der mdir (mtools) man page (beide von meinem FreeBsd 4.5 ):
"WARNING
The information in this man page is an extract from the
full documentation of the GNU C compiler, and is limited
to the meaning of the options.
This man page is not kept up to date except when volun-
teers want to maintain it. If you find a discrepancy
between the man page and the software, please check the
Info file, which is the authoritative documentation.
If we find that the things in this man page that are out
of date cause significant confusion or complaints, we will
stop distributing the man page. The alternative, updating
the man page when we update the Info file, is impossible
because the rest of the work of maintaining GNU CC leaves
us no time for that. The GNU project regards man pages as
obsolete and should not let them take time away from other
things.
For complete and current documentation, refer to the Info
file `gcc' or the manual Using and Porting GNU CC (for
version 2.0). Both are made from the Texinfo source file
gcc.texinfo."

Mtools' texinfo doc
Viewing the texi doc
This manpage has been automatically generated from
mtools's texinfo documentation. However, this process is
only approximative, and some items, such as crossrefer-
ences, footnotes and indices are lost in this translation
process. Indeed, these items have no appropriate repre-
sentation in the manpage format. Moreover, not all infor-
mation has been translated into the manpage version. Thus
I strongly advise you to use the original texinfo doc.
See the end of this manpage for instructions how to view
the texinfo doc.
* To generate a printable copy from the texinfo doc,
run the following commands:
./configure; make dvi; dvips mtools.dvi
* To generate a html copy, run:
./configure; make html
A premade html can be found at:
`http://mtools.linux.lu' and also at:
`http://www.tux.org/pub/knaff/mtools'
* To generate an info copy (browsable using emacs'
info mode), run:
./configure; make info"
einmal "�bersetzt" und einmal automatisch generiert, scheint also m�glich..
