--As of May 3, 2011 9:46:04 AM +0200, Polytropon is alleged to have said:

> I would like to add the excellent manpages of the system.

--As for the rest, it is mine.

And, vice-versa, you don't need a FreeBSD box to read them, if you have the 
web: They are all posted online at <http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi> for 
you to read.
