Are you saying that you are also planning to do an index of standard installed documentation, and we should limit the remit of my script to simply the documentation installed by the ports/packages system? >> Well, I've been quietly working away on this, and I'd like some opinions on >> what I've done so far. > > Looks great, definite value-add.

I'm going to look at pkg_add and pkg_create, but I'm afraid I actually now little about the ports system except 'make', 'make install'! :-) It'll be a learning experience for me anyway, so I'll have a look around and see what I can find out. Does anyone else have comments on what I've done? --- Andrew Boothman FreeBSD UK User Group http://ukug.uk.FreeBSD.org/~andrew/ http://ukug.uk.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
