[1][2]), so I have provided some instructions on how to use them in the FreeBSD Handbook. There is already an "Updating the Documentation Set" section, and I think adding further information on these documentation ports would be a good idea. I do not know whether the documentation ports are stable enough for common and everyday use, but while I wrote the patch I did not experience any problems with them. Feel free to review and comment on my patch [3]. Thank you for your replies in advance, and already thanks rene@, manolis@, gabor@, trhodes@ for their initial comments and suggestions. Cheers, :g [1] http://www.freshports.org/docs [2] http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-doc/2008-December/015088.html [3] http://people.freebsd.org/~pgj/patches/2009/04/12/documentation-ports.3.diff
