Gidday, Some news: * man-pages now has a website: http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages The site includes HTML versions of the current set of man-pages. * Since man-pages-2.69, each man page now includes a COLOPHON section at the end of the page which indicates the version of man-pages in which this page is released, and also contains a pointer to the man-pages web site. Back to the program as usual... The Linux man-pages maintainer proudly announces: man-pages-2.70.tar.gz - man pages for Linux This release is now available for download at: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/man-pages or ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/man-pages (Note the s/manpages/man-pages/ in these paths; a symlink with the old path will exist for a limited time.)
