I am interesting about idea of directories man?/{i386|alpha}. By their names I can understand that they are directories there platform specific man pages for certain man section will be stored. As I see there are only hard-linked manpages in man?/i386 directories. But it's interesting -- will these directories be used in future for storing unique (not hard-linked with other man pages) man pages ? If so, then I can add some patches for makewhatis(1)/catman(1) while I am working with internationalization support for this stuff. PS: Yes, these utilities not contain functionality to understand subdirectories in man directories. -- Sincerely Yours, | phantom@crimea.edu (primary) Alexey Zelkin | phantom@scorpion.crimea.ua (home) | ICQ: #6196584, FIDO: 2:460/12.26 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
