Now, all of these DO exist, in the ports tree. Question: should the base system manpages be self-contained 100%, or is it better to also point people to optional software that may or may not be installed ?.. I believe there's no 100% correct answer. For instance, info mode in emacs and the relationship between .texi and the TeX formatter are tight enough that I believe those references are innocuous.
