Bug 46637

The FreeBSD 4.6-RELEASE hier(7) man page has some errors.  Improvements
to that man page are possible too.  Other FreeBSD releases are affected
too.

Errors:  I am aware that not all the entries in this man page are
available in every FreeBSD system.  But the next entries are wrong:

  /usr/heimdal - should be /var/heimdal

Improvements:  I have observed that most entries are in alphabetical
order.  It is nice, as simplifies looking for the description of a
file, directory, or filesystem.  It makes the general layout of this
page similar to the default layout of the filesystem hierarchy
as shown by ls(1).  But some entries are NOT in alphabetical order:

  /mnt - should be before /modules
  /usr/include/netnatm - should be before /usr/include/netns
  /usr/share/dict/papers - is it in the wrong place?!?
  /usr/X11R6 - should it be at the before /usr/bin?
  /var/preserve - is it in wrong place too?

Fix: 

Only small changes to /usr/share/man/man7/hier.7.gz are required.
It should be easy to change in the CVS tree before releasing the
next major release of FreeBSD.

Thanks a lot for your attention and for maintaining one of the
finest operating systems available today!
