Why should it be very expensive? Is it the cost of cutting the tape? Surely the man pages are quite a smaller fraction of the whole release. It would have been more costly to include the printed pages in the package. -- Sao Khai Mong: Applied Dynamics, 3800 Stone School Road, Ann Arbor, Mi48108 (313)973-1300 (uunet|sharkey)!amara!khai khai@adi.com
