My point being that categorization makes most sense by purpose, and the purpose is to display manuals, and many tools to display manuals or prepare them for display live in textproc. I'd consider putting it below "net" because of the way it is technically working - opening a network connection to download some data - to be excessively formalistic. Devel is not only crowded, but misleading because the port is unusable for code development; it's puropose isn't even documentation development, but if it were, tools for documentation development live in textproc as well. Sysutils - well, merely displaying a manual is not really a task of system administration... But of course, you choose, you are the porters! :-) Ingo
