hi,
I think we need to re-structure the way we reference
to man pages from the docs. We should make it in
such a way, that all the man pages that are supported
by /cgi/man.cgi can be referenced, let that be
NetBSD's
set or our own set of man pages.. or ports...
I am saying we should make a new tag called <man> or
something like <manref>.
For example:
<manref section="8" name="sysinstall"
base="FREEBSD44-REL">
The above tag would produce the following HTML:
<a
href="http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=sysinstall&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+4.4-RELEASE">;
For the PDF, it would just produce: sysinstall(8)
I think this would be a great way to solve our
dillema ;)
Suggestions?
regards,
