No idea (I wasn't involved, in case you were wondering ;-)

Also, what does it all mean?  Granted, I might be a little thick but what
is the significance of (2)?

The (2) is referencing the man page convention of putting the section of
the man page after the function you're talking about. I figured you guys
would get it (since the code in the background is some of the
implementation of the open syscall :
http://cvs.opensolaris.org/source/xref/on/usr/src/uts/common/syscall/open.c#59 )

I used the "open" syscall since it's part of our name, and a pretty
important system call in UNIX generally.


Maybe it's all a bit geeky, but I liked it. I guess the graphic will
only be there for a while - so if you feel like putting together a
better graphic (which admittedly, wouldn't be hard!) I'm sure the
website-discuss guys are still taking submissions.


I like it too!  How "UNIX" can you get, when some one asks about the
graphic and you send them to a man page!  :-)
