There are a few things I wanted to discuss about this stuff before doing anything else... There are still a lot of man pages that will come up as "BSD Experimental". That is how the ".Os" macro works if it is used without any arguments. Unfortunately, this includes a LOT of BSD commands (echo, ls, mv, mkdir, etc). There are also a number of 3rd party packages that are the same way. Should I just remove the word "Experimental", so that any man page that doesn't specify the operating system will come up as "BSD"? We can fix any 3rd party packages as we notice them. Next, Should FreeBSD 2.2 be listed as "FreeBSD 2.2 Experimental" or "FreeBSD 2.2 Development" or some such? I didn't do that with the above changes because I didn't want someone to forget to change it when it comes time to cut the 2.2 CD-ROM. -- Mike Pritchard mpp@minn.net "Go that way. Really fast.
