- In his wisdom RMS decided that people need no man pages
- when they can use GNU's beautiful info system.
- Unfortunately, everybody I know greatly prefers man pages.
-
- Since GNU actively non-maintains man pages, and inserts
- text to the effect that you should not be reading them
- in each man page that they already have, it seems that
- outside maintenance of man pages for the GNU utilities
- is required.
-
- The fileutils-3.16 man pages found here have been derived
- from those in fileutils-3.16-man-0.4.tar.gz
- (as produced by Ragnar Hojland Espinosa and A. Wik, and
- found on ftp://mail1.bet1.puv.fi/incoming/)
- by adding information on what POSIX says about these
- utilities. This is very useful if you have to write
- scripts that should be portable.
-
- There is also a time.1 man page here, inspired by
- kromJx@crosswinds.net.
