GNATs only knows the name freebsd-doc. It could possibly be taught about aliases and do the conversion automatically, but if we accept doc, docs, freebsd-docs, etc. then GNATs' category/responsible file combo starts to look like hub's /etc/aliases file. Technically speaking using only known categories will help in my plight to automatically map categories to Email addresses via the responsible file with a minimum of fuss and code.

YOU ARE PRE-QUALIFIED IF: 1. YOU ARE AT LEAST 18 YEARS OLD OR OLDER 2. HAVE A VALID SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER Thank you for your inquiry about this incredible new loan program that thousands of people are taking advantage of even with credit problems in the past or present. It makes absolutely no difference what your financial situation is, even if you have filed bankruptcy and you are unemployed. You will learn that the organization that makes this loan is very flexible and will bend over backwards to loan money to people just like you for any purpose. Just think, start that small business you've been planning, or buy a car, boat or just take your family on a vacation. Now, could you use $10,000 within the next 30 days? If you are like most people, you needed it yesterday. Read Carefully Our Guarantee: If for any reason you do not receive a loan of up to $10,000, we will cheerfully refund your processing fee. The lender is a very honest and reputable organization that has been in business many years. We know where the money is and how you can get it and with a very high approval rate, your chances are excellent. So why wait? Do it NOW, and use the $10,000 to turn your situation around. Remember, you must be at least 18 years old and you must have a valid social security number. Premier Wealth Strategies, an innovative information service, has a processing fee that is normally $50, although we have found that most people who need money can not afford to send the entire $50, so we will process your order for $20. That is all you pay. Just print out this mail and fill out the following information to find out if you can qualify for this loan.Send $20.00 in check or money order (do not send cash)payable to ARH, to the address given below so you can receive your loan as soon aspossible. These loans are comply with state laws and are based on reasonableand average national interest rates. After you receive your $10,000 loan if you decide not to utilize your loan, you may return the uncashed check.So act now and you may have the funds you need within the next 30 days. Yes, Yes, Yes, this is what you've been looking for. The main reason you won't receive $10,000 within the next 30 days is if you don't act on this special program.

I was going to object to this change, but, having tried to think of a few different ways of expressing this, I've come to the conclusion that the whole paragraph is redundant. Users running 2.1 will need to re-configure the kernel regardless, and most 2.2 users can just load the LKM without touching the kernel; if that doesn't work for them, they also will have to re-config the kernel. Therefore, no-one actually needs to test if their kernel has Linux support. Apart from that, it looks fine. Thanks for doing this!

Date: Fri, 29 May 1998 22:22:43 +0200 From: Stefan Eggers Sender: owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi! As I have to write a small man page for a program lacking one (it will go into the ports collection) I was looking for some documentation in my system's filesystem. I did find documentation on the me and mm macros and the like but nothing which seemed like explaining in short the troff macros used for man pages. Where should I look for documentation on man page writing? More than a list of commands and for those with pitfalls some small remarks on usage it needn't be for me. Of course I could try to get it from looking at other man pages as well but I'd prefer some docs. Stefan.

Subject: Casino Manager Reveals Winning System-NO SHIT! -39588 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Excuse my language, but I'm going to tell you about the only casino gambling system that used to scare the SHIT out of me as a Casino Shift Boss! Hi! My name is Spence, and I was in the casino business for over 25 years, mostly as a Pit Boss, a Shift Boss, and then a Casino Manager in Las Vegas. My book comes with a 1000% MONEY BACK GUARANTEE FOR ONE FULL YEAR. In it, I'll show you how to finally beat the casino's. Interested? Then read on. I've seen it all, winners, losers, suckers, cheaters (with and without broken fingers by da boys), killer lucky streaks, card counters, mafia bosses, and more systems than you can name. But there is only ONE that works 100% of the time if you follow it through. Let me tell you something. As a casino dealer, I hated system players. They were a pain in the ass. As a Pit Boss, I loved them. As a Shift Boss, I adored them. As a Casino Manager, I gave them anything they wanted. Tickets to the Best Shows, Deluxe Suites with Jacuzzi's and a Beautiful View, the Best Escort Services, First Class Food, Drinks, Limosines to get them around town, and back and forth to the airport. You name it. It was theirs, and I had the power to give it. And I did-- for "FREE". Why? Because they all lost their money sooner or later. I loved gamblers. They made a good living for me, but I always thought they were the biggest bunch of suckers on God's Creation. Then I met a man I called "The Master". I watched him every day he came in. Every day, he quietly played a few hands of BlackJack, or perhaps Craps was his game that day, or Roulette. I kept a close eye on him, had the camera's take his picture, and had security watch him close, just to see if there was anything fishy going on. Nothing! Not one damn thing. This guy was good, but he was different. He wasn't a pro, or a card counter, or a cheater. He just had a system, and legally I had to let him use it. And every day he would win, a few hundred here, a thousand this day, five hundred the next. He'd trick me once in a while and LOSE while I was watching, but then he'd make it back the next day. Oh he was good, real good. You see, he tried to make me think he was a loser just like the others, but he was actually making hundred's, if not thousands, a week. And that was just at my shop, my casino. There's no telling what he was doing at the other joints in town. So being the good boss I was, I kept track of this guy. I introduced myself to him, to get to know him better. After all, that's my job, to find out what makes people tick, to pump the players for information, to put this guy in the books, and get the word around town that it looked like someone had found a way...perhaps "the" way. I got to know him pretty good. I'd buy him drinks, and I'd get him talking. He had quite a story. I was skeptical, but I listened. It was my job. He took me into his confidence, (and his into mine) and we had dinner numerous times, played golf, even became friends. I took care of him, and it paid off. One night, he showed me "the plan". It was simple, direct, easy,... practically no buy-in.., and no skill...you could start with $20-$30, and as he showed me, you could make a killing. Now, let me tell you, I had seen it all. When you're in the "business", you get a little cynical. Everyone has a scam, a plan, a con. Las Vegas is full of these types of morons. But then out of all those "little guys" trying to be BIG GUYS, I never met one quite like "The Master". He wasn't a con, or scam artist. He was one of the few...the few that actually were making it, the cream that had risen to the top, the professional gambler that lived off the casino's. AND BOY, DID HE LIVE!!! 2 Mercedes, a Las Vegas Mansion, Antiques to fill their rooms, two maids, a swimming pool, pictures hanging on the walls of his office showing where he had traveled all over the world. Stock accounts, Bonds, Real Estate, you name it. Did he get it all from gambling? No, not all of it.. Some was from other lucretive business deals. But the man was self-made. He lived a life most of us only dream about. He's put three kids through school, gave money to charity. I mean the guy even had a heart. "I give to charity because my wife made me promise her before she died, that I'd help others out. Last year I gave away close to $250,000." Must of loved his wife a lot. The more I got to know this guy, even with the babes in bikini's at his swimming pool, and at his beach house in Hawaii, the more I saw something else. He wanted some real friends. He had only a few that he could count on one hand. I was lucky to make it into that elite group. Well, my friend is gone now, but I'll never forget the times we had. He'd fly me to New York City for a weekend, and we'd check out a play or two on Broadway, go see some jazz in the Village, and then off to Atlantic City to play. I traveled with him to Monte Carlo, and Europe. Everywhere we went, at every casino, he'd pocket hundreds, sometimes thousands. I started to play myself, and started to WIN. I bought a new house, paid off my debts (a lot of them too), bought a new car, had real money in the bank for the first time in my life, and let me tell you I was not a gambler. Remember? To me gambler's were suckers and losers. I was definitely not in that crowd. But this was different. I wasn't a gambler. I was a WINNER. And now, I'm gonna show you how to be a WINNER too. Welcome to the club, kid. You made it. I'm gonna give you "The Master's Secret". Now, if you'll just bear with me a little here. I'm gonna let you in on a little somethin'. With the combined expertise of my inside knowledge into how the casino's work, and "The Master's Secret", you are going to be UNSTOPPABLE. Like I said, I know the business, and I know it real good, see. That gives you a real advantage, because you're gonna need it. I know all the tricks in the book. How the casino's put in a ringer to get you to lose, shills that'll sit in on your game to screw up your cards, how the dealers are changed to get things to go the casino's way. I'll let you in on the following: * What are those camera's in the casino all about, and how do they keep track of the player whose really winning. * What tricks do the bosses use to keep you playing at their casino. * How the boss will get you drunker than shit to get you to lose. * How to get free rooms, food, shows, Limo's and more from the boss. * How the games are set up so you HAVE to lose, (Unless you have "The Master's Secret"!) * What to do if you're followed, and someone is out to do you no good. * What games you should play and what you should stay away from. * Why you should never drink and gamble, but how to make the casino's think you are. * What never to do in a casino. (It'll get you put in jail faster than you can sneeze.) * Communication between the different casino's. (Yes, we tip off all the places in town, if there's a "dangerous player" around, complete with pictures.) * How to keep from being recognized. * The easiest way to count cards. (This ones so simple, my 8 year old can do it.) * How the bosses get "tipped off" to whether you're up to no good. * To tip the dealer, or not tip the dealer, and how tipping will get you a really good friend who'll let you slide on a mistake or two. (wink, wink) * Whose the most dangerous dealer in the casino, and how to spot him. * How to keep track of losing dealers, and dealers who are just having a bad shift. * Every single inside scam, con, cheat in the book, and why most don't work, and a few that will. (Just don't get caught.) * Gambling for "FREE". (You heard it right. It's not a typo.) * How to "team" play. * Why you should almost never piss off a casino dealer, boss, cocktail waitress, and when you definitely SHOULD. * Casino psychology. A complete look at how the casino thinks. ("Casino", the movie, only showed a part of it, and another movie told all. Find out which one.) * And a lot, LOT more. Let me tell you something, if your a gambler, or just like to play occasionally for fun, and you don't order this book, you're be a fool. *A fool because this is the "only" way you'll ever win. *A fool because I give you a year's guarantee. *A fool because this guarantee will pay you a 1000% return if "The Master's Plan" doesn't make you a winning gambler. That's right. Here's the deal. You get this book with all the answers in it that'll make you a success at the casino. Your investment is less than the "buy in" at a $2 table. You get an entire YEAR from the time you order to test out the system. That gives you plenty of time to get to Vegas or the nearest Casino, and try it out. Or try it out at home with a deck of cards, a toy Roulette Wheel, or a pair of dice. Don't risk any of your own money at the casino's just yet. Try it at home. Once you get to the casino's and use "The Master's Plan" in live action, if it doesn't make you some serious money, every time you play, you write to me, and I'll give you 1000% back as a guarantee. That's the gamble, and you can't lose on this one. You'll get 10 times your money back if this doesn't work for you. Your investment for "The Master's Plan" is practically nothing. Just as if you were buying a book at the store, where currently it is unavailable, "The Master's Plan" can be yours for a small investment of $20. And if it doesn't work, you have one year to claim the 1000% guarantee. You give me $20, and if it doesn't work, I'll send you back $200. So why am I doing this, if I'm so rich. Let's just say I have a few old scores to settle, and I can't think of a better way than to get this plan out there, in the open and wide spread. I charge the $20 because nothing in this world is free, and I think you can appreciate the idea of a little exchange for a wise investment. Here's how you get the book. You order it direct from me. I live in a little town outside of Las Vegas now, in St. George, Utah. It's nice, small, sunny year round, and plenty of golf, and if I want to make some more money at the tables, I've got Mesquite, Nevada about 45 minutes away, and Vegas in less than 2 hours . To me it's semi-retirement. I'm out of the business now, and doing something that I love...Writing. This is my first work, and to be honest with you, the cheapest way to do it is by myself. I don't accept checks. Sorry. Old habits die hard. I don't accept credit cards...yet, but if this pays off, I'll look into it. I accept cash, which is preferable. (Like I said, old habits die hard.) Just take a $20 bill, wrap it in between 2 pieces of paper. On one of the sheets, write your name, full address including zip code, and your e-mail address. Type all the information if you can, or at least write legibly. Tell me that you want "The Master's Plan" so you can kick some ass at the tables. Put the paper and the $20 in an envelope, stamp it, and send it to: Spencer A. Smith 465 S. Bluff #272 St. George, Utah 84770 Dept: Games/CG899250 Bluff St. You gotta love it. What a great street name to get a book on gambling. Once I get your small investment. I will e-mail you my book. It may take a while to download, but if you suddenly check your e-mail, and you notice there's a large file coming in, it'll be me. I also accept U.S. Postal Money Orders made out to me, as they are the same as cash, and I can understand if you feel a little nervous about sending $20 cash in the mail. I will also take a certified bank check. But like I said CASH is preferable. NO personal or business checks as they take way too long to clear, and if you're like me, you want everything yesterday. Checks would take up to 4-6 weeks to get the statement back from the bank as to what cleared and what didn't. It's a real hassle. Oh and if you order in the next 10 days, I'll send you a piece of software that'll DOUBLE, even TRIPLE the speed of your computer.. free. Even if you take the gurantee, and I send you $200, you get to keep the software...worth about $20 on the open market. A friend of mine developed it, and said I could give it away if I wanted to. Just another computer nerd who has fun messing with Intel's and Bill Gates' head. They hate this software because it makes cpu chips obsolete the moment it's installed. Turns a 486 into a Pentium, and a Pentium into what Intel hasn't developed yet. See what I mean. That's why they hate it. See, you can't lose on this one. OK kid, so what are you waiting for. The worst that could happen is you get $200 out of the deal. So go for it now. Send the 20., and "it'll be nothing but blue skies..." Good Luck! Spence PS. I am looking for distributors. If after buying this book at full price, you decide that you'd like to help sell it, then you do the advertising, and attach your distributor number. For every order I get with your number on it, I'll send you $10. The checks are sent once a month. Just 2 orders, and you get your money back on the original book order. No Sign-Up Fee. Just let me know you want to be a distributor, I'll assign you a number, use this ad if you want to, and I'll give you the name and address of a place to get e-mail software CHEAP!!! Or use any other means you want. The sky's the limit.
