I've been toying with the idea of creating a "types" man page that lists common scalar and pointer types in FreeBSD (including standard C types). For every type, the man page would indicate: - the name (duh) - what header(s) (if any) to include to define it - width on all supported platforms - signedness - equivalence with other types - appropriate format specifier and cast to use for printf()ing variables of that type portably. What I'm wondering is: 1) does anybody else but me think that this would be a good idea? 2) in what section would such a man page belong?
