You probably won't get too many replies to this, however, it being one of those "if we had enough time to search, we'd have enough time to fix them!" sorts of propositions. :-) I really recommend that you simply automate the process by iterating through every command in /sbin, /usr/sbin, /bin, /usr/bin and /usr/libexec, making sure that it has a man page in sections 1 or 8, through every library in /usr/lib and making sure that the functions are documented in sections 2 or 3, and through every file in /etc, making sure that the relevant files have docs in section 5. By the time you've finished that, we'll be pretty well doc'd and ready to take all the man pages and convert them to some other format.. :-) Jordan
