Yeah, that's what I thought you'd say. I don't think it's worth the effort and expense of duplicating Cygwin's CSS elsewhere but maybe there's a clever way to avoid the html nesting which wouldn't require that. >>> - Any comments about the other items in my FUTURE WORK section? >>> Unconditional green light, or do you want to approve them one by one? >> >> You have the right to change anything in the doc directory.

I'd rather just move this out of the code entirely. The user visible interfaces aren't going to change and we haven't made a habit of adding new DOCTOOL tags. I don't know who first thought that adding these was a good idea (it may predate my time on the project even though CVS insists that I added it with version 1.1) but, if Corinna agrees when she gets back, I'd like to just get rid of these. cgf
