>Description:
ipfw(8) doesn't explain the difference between list and show
and the "-a" description references a non-existant description
of "show".
================
>How-To-Repeat:
n/a
================
>Fix:
## Add this:
(The show command is the same as the list command with an implied -a.)
## and change "-a" to:
-a With the list command, show counter values. With the show com-
mand, it is redundant.
## patch -d "unknown uncompressed man directory" < this-PR
