Nope. `find / -name handbook` gives me:
/usr/share/doc/handbook
/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/share/doc/handbook
/usr/ports/japanese/handbook

Hmmm... where could it possibly be? Is it in the /usr/obj/ dir, but not in
/usr/src? how could that be? I cleared /usr/obj/ before making world...

Thanks Doug! I didn't thank you for all the answers you gave me, and I
don't think people thank you enough for what you do. Since the beginning
you are there answering my stupid questions with the same patience, so
much that I know a lot more now!

Thanks

Spidey
