>Description:

The manpage for doscmd is a copy of the BSDI manpages. It contains a
reference to a DOS/UNIX file conversion utility called 'bsd2dos'. bsd2dos
is not a part of FreeBSD and it's not a part of the port collection, either.
The reference to doscmd should be replaced by a reference to an existing
conversion tools like recode.

A patch to that effect has been included.
