Re: manpage for GNU utilities?



Something else to consider -- the current TAR releases (well, the
pretests anyway) have a wonderful hack: a script that takes the usage
message and generates a man page.  This might require enhancing the
usage message some, for many of those programs, but that's something
that can easily go back upstream.  And the programs are, after all,
simple.

That would probably be minimally sufficient -- it's worth noting that
it might also be a good *starting* point for man pages with actual
detail...
