Hi list,
just a quick question:
I just read the InformIT article on OpenBSD 3.9, available here:
http://www.informit.com/articles/article.asp?p=468055&f1=rss&rl=1
They state that the MAN pages are authoritative in OpenBSD, "... In
OpenBSD, the UNIX manual pages are considered authoritative. If a
program or function call does not behave exactly as the manual
describes, this is considered a bug...."
I was just curious to know if this was also true in FreeBSD.
Thanx, regards
