Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-doc->mpp I'll look at this, but it looks like most of them are 3rd party man pages. Rich,, Most of these look like being problems with the X distribution, which we don't maintain. Can you follow this up with the XFree86 people?

The actual command is proxymngr(1).

Look like real bugs that the XFree86 project needs to fix. N -- FreeBSD: The Power to Serve http://www.freebsd.org/ FreeBSD Documentation Project http://www.freebsd.org/docproj/ --- 15B8 3FFC DDB4 34B0 AA5F 94B7 93A8 0764 2C37 E375 --- I find it a bit peculiar to be sent scuttling off to talk to the XF86 folks. In the first place, I don't even _use_ X11. In the second, I was perhaps a bit too credulous at BSDcon 2000 when the BSD folks said that they handled all bugs in the distro themselves, unlike the Linux folks who just referred folks off to the package authors. Sigh... Owell, I'll send them a note and see if they'll listen to me. >X(1) exists on my XFree86 3.3.6 system. What version of X do you have >installed? I've deleted all the other X(1) problems. As my uname output indicates, I'm running FB 4.2. The version of X11 is whatever was on the distro. Getting back to the X(1) problem, however, the error lies in the fact that the man page isn't really in section 1: /usr/X11R6/man/cat3/X.3.gz >The actual man page says: > > xfindproxy (1), Proxy Management Protocol spec V1.0, prox- > ymngr(1), Xserver(1) > >so that's the result of the hyphenation algorithm. The actual command >is proxymngr(1). This is a bug in the markup in the man page. Well, it's a poor job of hyphenation, to be sure, but it's also a bug in my parsing code, which should splice hyphenated words back together. >> xvidtune(1) XF86Config(4/5) (4) > >Exists, but the man page is written oddly, and it only exists in section >5, not section 4. This is the only instance I have found of this kind of notation, so I think it wouldn't be too outrageous to ask that it be normalized. >> X(3) XConsortium(1) (3) >Exists on my system. >> X(3) XStandards(1) (3) >Ditto. >> X(3) Xsecurity(1) (1) >Ditto. Yes, they exist, but they are all in section 3: /usr/X11R6/man/cat3/XConsortium.3.gz /usr/X11R6/man/cat3/Xsecurity.3.gz /usr/X11R6/man/cat3/XStandards.3.gz >> XCreateFontSet(3) XExtentsofFontSet(3X11) XExtentsOf... >>... >Look like real bugs that the XFree86 project needs to fix. Agreed. I'll send them a note... -r -- http://www.cfcl.com/rdm - home page, resume, etc. http://www.cfcl.com/Meta/md_fb.html - The FreeBSD Browser email: rdm@cfcl.com; phone: +1 650-873-7841 State Changed From-To: open->closed These are all 3rd party package xrefs that we do not fix ourselves.
