Richard> Package: manpages Richard> Version: 1.11-4 ... Richard> No manual entry for acct in section 5
I wrote a realy minimial acct(5) for the acct package which basically refers back to acct(2), see below. As acct.h is in the kernel source, and hence in libc5-dev, this acct.5 (or an improved version) chould move to manpages. .TH ACCT 5 "1995 October 31" "Debian/GNU Linux" .SH NAME acct \- execution accounting file .SH SYNOPSIS .B #include <sys/acct.h> .SH DESCRIPTION The kernel maintains an accounting information structure for all processes. If a process terminates, and accounting is enabled, the kernel calls the .BR acct (2) function to prepare, and then append, a record for this process to the accounting file. The accounting structure .B "struct acct" is described in the file .IR /usr/src/linux/include/acct.h . .SH SEE ALSO .BR acct (2), .BR sa (1). -- Dirk Eddelb"uttel http://qed.econ.queensu.ca/~edd
