I've built the docs with Gabor's above patch applied & have started work on rejigging that section. You can see how far I've got. I've only done one page (which is bound to change) & largely worked on the css, so it's easier to mark-up into sgml: http://www.shute.org.uk/freebsd/synopsis.html I've made an executive decision to change mentions of cvsup to csup where appropriate since it's in base. I'm afraid I haven't got much to show ATM but keep your eyes peeled & I'll post regular updates here. I'll also likely be asking some questions! I guess it will probably take me a few weeks of work to get it into a state with which I'm happy but I'm not working ATM which allows me to devote plenty of time to it. Any suggestions gratefully received. :) Regards, -- Frank Contact info: http://www.shute.org.uk/misc/contact.html
