The route(8) manpage isn't the right place to document netstat(1)'s flags, IMO. I think I'll just say "... please use the netstat(1) command". On second thoughts, I think "For that functionality, the netstat(1) command should be used" would be better. -- Ben Smithurst / ben@FreeBSD.org / PGP: 0x99392F7D FreeBSD Documentation Project / [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 5.0i for non-commercial use MessageID: W99/BMOt2Fjk4pVB0e73S/Zmxysbcxgt iQCVAwUBOXWmyisPVtiZOS99AQHTNQP8DkTITp9iACftjWbfYWzK+VElQjyRp3YQ C1nX7M1Zh8rX3dBDHBNGI63BJ0lyJ2xzodCUbUNCons/O7q4QNpV34M7gZAczIbe StrzT4c4M+OPVmZGcr3liQvNOiLijHeQml3iRd5eO/wStqokDBeaaeSvgtvEktNI biKndG9eCis= =LskB -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----help
