Reply-To: gouders@et.bocholt.fh-gelsenkirchen.de Date: Fri, 14 Jul 2000 23:42:43 +0200 Sender: owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi, I just tried to re-install the DOC distribution using /stand/sysinstall and recognized that (for example in the English language case) the parts I got were /usr/share/doc/en/articles and /usr/share/doc/en/books but the one that I wanted, /usr/share/doc/en/tutorials, was missing. Well, I started to reread the HTML version of docproj-primer online from FreeBSD.org but my eyes began to hurt and I said to myself: "Why don't you just get the post script version, send it to the printer and stop causing pain to your already weak eyes, anymore?"... Now, I am somewhat frustrated, because I haven't been successful even with that simple task. I would be glad if someone could explain me the "usual" way to get the tutorials. I would also like know, if it is possible to get other formats than HTML and plain text out of the DOC distribution using /stand/sysinstall. (I did not mention that I tried it on machines running 3.4-RELEASE and 4.0-RELEASE, because I guess I am missing something that is not release specific.)
