No, OSF/1 (Digital UNIX *shudder*) makes really drappy manuals, I think
largely because their commands at the same time support the BSD options
carried over from Ultrix (am I wrong about that?) AND also the xpg4 or
whatever it is called, that stuff that TOG requires for UNIX branding.
Take a look at their cc man page sometime, makes thegcc man look very
straightforward.  IMHO, the BSD and FreeBSD man pages are among the best
of the Unices I have used.
