The frontmost [] means "test for this, and if not, then...". Does it still scare you?
For fun, I just committed a few things to the collab-maint repository: . examples/bitcoin.conf . bitcoind(1) and bitcoin.conf(5) man pages but I am not so sure what the right way to install the man pages are, maybe cdbs does it magically? Check it out and please correct it if its wrong.
Nice!Did you hardcode the manpages or generate (at least the bitcoind one) using help2man?
Oh well, I'll have a look at it.Oh, and please pretty please add your name as uploader. I would looove this to be a teamwork between us - even if you might go busy on me for years at a time ;-)
