--- Comment #2 from Sean McBride <sean at rogue-research.com> ---
Thanks for your fast response.

I am pretty new to FreeBSD, so of course what seems obvious to you is perhaps
unclear to newbies. :)

The name 'fsdb' suggested 'file system debug', I didn't expect it to apply to
only one filesystem.

>NAME
>     fsdb – FFS debugging/editing tool

You know, I think I only saw one 'F' :), like:  'FS debugging/editing tool'

>The point of comparison is UFS1.  ZFS is out of scope of the page.

Which was not obvious to me before now.

------

Perhaps some wording could be improved nevertheless.  ex, that very first line
could be:

NAME
     fsdb – FFS/UFS debugging/editing tool

"FFS" seems to be a lesser known acronym, ex: Wikipedia's disambiguation page
lists "Flash File System" and "Formatted File System" but only "Berkeley Fast
File System".

Even a short sentence to say that the tool supports no other file system would
be nice IMHO.
