I guess Mikle tries to say that nroff(1) splits man(7) pages into individual pages of about 60 lines and puts a header line and a footer line on each page, as opposed to putting one header and one footer at the very beginning and end, like mandoc(1) does. > mplayer doesn't update their manual? go tell the > mplayer people; reporting that here does nothing. I don't think this feature needs fixing right now, it doesn't make that much of a difference. We might or might not change it later, when we have a better control over ports manual formatting in general. Yours, Ingo
