- Subject: xbase-clients: *info man pages should refer to each other [patch]
- From: "James R. Van Zandt" <jrvz@comcast.net>

- Message-id: <E1F2xB4-000685-00@vanzandt.comcast.net>
Package: xbase-clients
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-14
Severity: wishlist
These programs all provide information about parts of the X Window System:
xprop xvinfo xdriinfo glxinfo xwininfo xdpyinfo
I suggest that each of their man pages should include a SEE ALSO
reference to the others, and propose the patch below. (As noted
above, I have an old version installed here, but these patches are
against xorg-x11-6.9.0.dfsg.1)
