It's my first time to write the man page and I am not skill on write, so at the moment it's just a text file. After finish it, I will convert it to the man page format. However, someone need to fix the grammar and fill out what I left it empty and not explain clear. Also, someone is welcome to convert it to man page format before I :-) Cheers, Mezz > +---------------------------------------------------------------------+ > |Steve Wingate > |MCSE, CCNA Sat Oct 25 17:10:00 PDT 2003 > +---------------------------------------------------------------------+ > |FreeBSD 4.9-PRERELEASE > | 5:10PM up 22:44, 0 users, load averages: 0.16, 0.03, 0.01 > +---------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- bsdforums.org 's moderator, mezz. ------------yFnvmH8RPRMncTk4VSbI7F Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=marcusmerge.txt Content-Type: text/plain; name=marcusmerge.txt Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MARCUSMERGE(1) MARCUSMERGE(1) NAME marcusmerge -- FreeBSD GNOME package for MarcusCom CVS repositories SYNOPSIS marcusmerge [-alptuv] [-c cvsroot] [-d directory] [-m module] [-s directory] DESCRIPTION blah, blah, blah......
