Well, I'll let the core team hammer out the wording, and I'll see to it that it gets in the manual. If the said file stays put in the source tree, and in its current format, the handbook can just pull it in directly when html/latex/ascii versions are generated. > Now onto another topic.. in the bibliography section of the How/Handbook > I see *no* mention of the O'Reily BSD 4.4 manual set, this is a major > oversight, it is the bible as far as I am concerned for our code base!!! And that isn't the only thing missing, inaccurate, and out of date! I just dug out my O'Reilly catalog and will fill out the bibliography a bit more. And to everyone else, please send a citation of YOUR favorite FreeBSD relevant book or magazine to doc@freebsd.org. Ultimately, I would like to make this an annotated bibliography, so if you have comments on any of the entries, send those in too! -john === jfieber@cs.smith.edu ================================================ =================================== Come up and be a kite! --K.
