Hum ... I agree HTML is sufficent and even better than man pages for
most stuff
(see my previous post), but there is still a use for man pages. Believe
it or not,
I like using "man javac" , "man javadoc", "man rmiregistry" once in a
while
when I'm coding in my Solaris system. It's nice, and the format fits
well
with the OS. What's the problem with that ? Are you going to say we need
to eliminate the "java" and "javac" tools since nobody uses the 25-year
old
command line OS interface ?
:)
... what does this have to do with servlets ???
