Well, first of all let me say that your past replies about ifstated and queuing and some of other threads you responded to were helpful to me. I am glad you did not ask the OP to RTFM during those conversations. I agree with you that OpenBSD man pages (and FAQ and style and mdoc and a whole lot of stuff) are excellent but a message like the one that Stuart Henderson sent helps that person out and probably encourages everyone to read the docs more thoroughly. For me, reading Stuart's replies on various topics in the archives (and his replies to some of my questions posted to misc@) have pointed me in the right direction on what to read and where to look and has been very valuable. So really hope he and you and others continue to help out people whenever possible and not ask them to RTFM. -- Vijay Sankar, M.Eng., P.Eng.
