I posted this to unix-pc.general, but I forgot to cross-post to comp.sys.att. Here it is again, and sorry for the wasted space. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Hi, fellow netters. I bought a new 3B1 not too long ago. I have several questions that I didn't find on the FAQ list. First, I couldn't get software for it from AT&T (believe me I *tried*), so I got it from other places. But that left me without manuals or any manual pages, so I'm stuck trying to remember how, say, cpio works and typing in things like "date +%a", "date +%b", and writing down what happens so I can find out what options each command has and what each of the options do. Needless to say, this is less than optimal. Does anyone know where I can get either on-line man pages or manuals so that I can RTFM when I need to know something? Second, is troff available? Where can I get it if it is? Third, somebody has already asked if troff can be used with a dot-matrix printer. Could you please post your responses, or alternatively, could that somebody please summarize and post the responses? (or send them to me by e-mail?) Thanks in advance. -- uucp path: ...!osu-cis!n8emr!evapc!eva domain path: Not yet officially listed Eva Allen ...Rarely have we seen a person fail...
