Really? Not "doc-lint"?) and that pointed me to this nicely written: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/fdp-primer/ which is an enjoyable, and useful, read for a n00b. Just wanted to tip my hat to fellow doc folks, I've written plenty. I know it's a thankless task that you only do because you care enough to it right, nobody pays people enough to do good docs. Nice job, on that, the handbook is good, seems like you care about man pages, nice. --lm
