That sounds really nice! In fact, I never even knew about gnu.org/manual (hmmm I dunno am I just blind?); even in it's current form it looks very useful. BTW, a lot of the pages still say "no GIFs due to patent problems". [Actually, even though patent is expired, is there really any reason to distribute images in the GIF format any more (outside special cases like animations)? My impression is that pretty much everything can handle PNG files these days...] -miles ...who doesn't have enough disk space on his home machine for documentation... :-} -- ===== (^o^; (())) *This is the cute octopus virus, please copy it into your sig so it can spread.
