>Thank you for looking into this. Indeed, as upstream it is easier for me to *not* maintain a dedicated webpage, and instead rely on "pasdoc --help" and help2man. The manpage generated this way looks satisfactory I think (at least for us, humans -- it seems only some programs complain :) ). So if we can fix this without adding a dedicated man page, that's great. Regards, Michalis
