Having the proc and function names on the wiki as placeholders is a great way of seeding it. "Automatically uploading" the existing man pages into the wiki is more work than it's worth. Having to do it manually forces me to look at each and every man page and go "oh god, no, that's wrong" and correct it before I move on. It's also an easy way to see progress: docs that are not done yet show up as uncreated wiki links which are visually easy to distinguish from ones that are already created. This way, you can see what docs still need to be done, rather than having to go into a page, look and see if it's accurate, decide you want to edit it, and then actually make your edits. -- Dossy -- Dossy Shiobara mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Panoptic Computer Network web: http://www.panoptic.com/ "He realized the fastest way to change is to laugh at your own folly -- then you can let go and quickly move on."
