Hi Jungle Boogie, Ingo, misc@, I have to add one comment here: "less" is superior interface, typically. Interesting, I can't find an obvious way to install these locally though. > > However, it seems the most recent FreeBSD manpages available > > are from the 11.1 release. > > Are they? > $ ftp -o - https://man.openbsd.org/ 2> /dev/null | \ sed -n "/manpath/,/\/select/p" | grep option | \ cut -d\> -f2 | cut -d\< -f1 | sort -nr Probably, FreeBSD-12.0 was positioned out of group in the drop down list.

There is one port (and package) of the POSIX manual pages, probably this: https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/ports/books/man-pages-posix/ https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/~checkout~/ports/books/man-pages-posix/Makefile https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/~checkout~/ports/books/man-pages-posix/pkg/DESCR https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/~checkout~/ports/books/man-pages-posix/pkg/PLIST https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/~checkout~/ports/books/man-pages-posix/pkg/README Maybe there are none ports for the others in the list, and they are added manually, please kindly share details of the process used to offer these. > Yours, > Ingo > Thank you ALL for the manual pages & the time, and care dedicated to this and other questions related (sometimes not quite), very much appreciated. Kind regards, Anton Lazarov
