Okay, but now I have questions! Where do these prepended pages come from? How do I test the page as it will appear? I guess maybe I'm asking for the makefile that produces what one would see. I want to validate that. BTW, part of the problem is that the pages are complete enough as they are to be considered complete. I.e. they are not obviously fragments. Would it be better to make them clearly fragments? Doesn't the prepending prevent incremental migration to new standards? > Since you ran into this, I would like to document this better. > Would http://gcc.gnu.org/projects/web.html be a good place, > or do you have a different suggestion? My entry point was http://gcc.gnu.org/cvs.html, so at a minimum it need to be cross linked with http://gcc.gnu.org/projects/web.html. -- Lawrence Crowl
