                                                (gnumaniak 1.1a, 12 DEC 1998)

POSIX
=-=-=
The POSIX information on the fileutils man pages may have to go away on next
gnumaniak release, since I do not have the 1003.2 draft and I'm not going
to be able to check for misplacements (mostly placing POSIX options under
GNU options and similar)

What  
=-=-=
gnumaniak, a collection of man pages I either updated (or rewrote absolutely
from scratch since I wanted to use the LDP Documentation License), and that
correspond to packages with unsupported/unmaintained/inexistant pages. So far:

	diffutils-2.7.2
	sh-utils-1.16
	fileutils-4.0
	textutils-1.22
        libtool-1.2

I know option formatting varies from one package to other, I'm still trying
to get comfortable with one "look". Comments welcome. And, btw, this pages
are released independently of the man-pages package because ..

When
=-=-=
Because each time an above package with non maintained man pages is
released gnumaniak will go out (or that's what's planned:). man-pages is
probabily too big to be released frecuently(?).  Besides, man-pages
documents sections 2, 3, 4, 5, 7. gnumaniak documents section 1.

Why
=-=
We hate info. We know info is a Bad Thing.  We know $1 editor is better than
$2, too.  If you are happy with info, fine.  You are in your right to be
wrong.
