Swearingen >Release: FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE i386 >Organization: none >Environment: n/a ================ >Description: The LINT file lists a "pseudo-device loop" device for which there seems (to new users, at least) to be no man page. Actually it is "lo(4)". While there are other pseudo-device without man pages (or at least ones I could find), it would be helpful and easy to have a loop(4) which is a link to lo(4). ================ >How-To-Repeat: n/a ================ >Fix: Link loop.4.gz to lo.4.gz . A less desirable solution would be to put a note in LINT. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
