Hello!

I've purchased FreeBSD v2.0 on a CD recently and am really pleased with 
it.  I have a question though.  When I looked at the FAQ file in 
/usr/src/share, the file is full of control chars which clearly wouldn't 
belong in a text file; in short, FAQ is unreadable.  Is the format 
supposed to be text?  Is it encoded for some sort of browser of which I 
am ignorant?  Will Mary and Jed save Grandpa before he drowns in the well?
Any advice?

Thanks,
Matthew Barker (mbar@netcom.com)
