I completely agree with Ingo; there is _no_ consensus. I'm glad someone took the time and effort to translate the UNIX and C-language documents into the many languages where they exist. As to groff, et. al., they are stable enough that any translations would remain useful, especially for those approaching them for the first time. -- Mike Bianchi Foveal Systems 973 822-2085 mbian...@foveal.com http://www.AutoAuditorium.com http://www.FovealMounts.com
