I am not sure that it makes sense to mention implementation details in the man
page in this regard (i.e. libevent). If people want to know the details, they
can read the source code.
In any event, true and false are not reserved words.

This man page is currently not linked into the build.

This diff is a resend against the correct file:

- "file sets" has a special meaning, so don't refer to src.tar.gz,
xenocara.tar.gc,ports.tar.gz as "file sets"

Good evening,
Is there a written/unwritten rule for using quotation marks? Do man pages and
web pages follow the same rules?
When would I use 'this', "this", `this', ``this'', “this“, etc.?
I guess this can be both a source problem as well as a display problem.
Any suggestions regarding reason
Thanks Benny. I will review again and resubmit.
Some responses in-line below.

I am holding off on sending the next diff until I figure out how to ensure
that my diff does not get mangled by my email client. In particular, a
hash (#) in an HTML anchor tag seems to get hosed by my zimbra web client.

Simplified diff for consideration.
I kept the change from "file sets" to "source files" as "file sets" has
special meaning in the OpenBSD installation process.
Also, only href the first instances of cvs(1).

The Background sections in both the Networking and PF - Building a Router FAQ

As such, be consistent with the corresponding title in faq6.html.
