Hi Robert, > Of course, all have documentation in standard man pages. ;-)
That is not standard, that is Unix ;-) > AFAIK FreeDOS doesn't come with a man page reader. So what's > the best method to make documentation accessible to DOS users? We have the HTMLHELP system. You should contact Fritz Mueller to have your pages integrated into the collection. Look at the zip contents (old ones or better his variant) to get some idea about the standard style of such help pages. Basically they do look similar to MS DOS HELP but are rendered in (simple) HTML. > My idea is to put original groff files to the "doc" folder... > DJGPP's groff, strip line feeds from (to make a simple ASCII file) Sure, you can always put some nice docs into doc, but it would be okay to have the ASCII version in doc/PACKAGENAME/*.txt instead of putting it into help/PACKAGENAME.en if you ask me ;-) Eric ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
