A part of it, yeah.. Not having manpqges still makes it annoying when I have to
figure out how things work ;(.
Next time someone else converts ANYTHING to libxo -- write tests FIRST to make
sure you're not breaking legacy behavior. If you need help figuring out how to
do that, I'll be more than happy to document it on a wiki page, with simple,
concise directions.
Thanks!
