Someone doing man ln probably doesn't care about what link does, and view versa, no? They could, however, have it in the '.SH SEE ALSO' section. That's what it's for, yeah? -- [ Joseph Mallett ] [ xMach Core Team xMach: Proactively Unbloated Microkernel BSD ] [ Proud Open/Free/Net/4.4BSD User; C Programmer; Mad ] [ www.xMach.org ] Those who dial will know its meaning: 6545666,555,666,6545666655654 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
