H. 03755 Lines: 16 Xref: linus net.followup:4441 net.news.group:3239 I vote for net.doc . The first item I would like to see is a Guide to Unix Documentation. The most frustrating thing about looking for something in the Unix Programmers Guide is you usually have to know its *name* in order to find it. The second most frustrating thing is that there are no *examples* which make usage clear (how about an Examples Manual?). The third worst thing is that not all of the pointers (SEE ALSO) that should be there *are* there. And how about some more clever program than "man" to help find things ?? Gray Abbott Creare Inc.
