On the contrary!

Man pages looked good to me. How about posting it to SIMTEL20's MSDOS
archive? That way everyone who wanted it later could get it. As for me,
if you're willing, by all means e-mail the goodies. I was just about to
write something that would put the name of the file being listed on
the output, and I think you've saved me that labor.
