let me turn around the current thread on info->man by asking, "Gee, Wally, how do I take some man pages in nroff format and put them safely into the info reader system??" considering how nice the info reader is, and the fact that I don't yet have any backup device (and no system backups), I'd just as soon not do anything to nuke the system...

Read my lips, "No New Info!" :-) (or is that, "No GNU Info!") :-) Seriously, this has been asked and answered many times (and should definitely be in the FAQ), and the answer is: This is not currently available. > | Devon Prichard "The atrocious crime of being a young | > | u714092@eagle.larc.nasa.gov, man...
