man-page-conversion-20051208 This is the initial conversion of the AFS Adminstrators Reference into POD for use as man pages. The man pages are now generated via pod2man from regen.sh so that only those working from CVS have to have pod2man available. The Makefile only installs. The pages have also been sorted out into pod1, pod5, and pod8 directories, making conversion to the right section of man page easier without maintaining a separate list and allowing for names to be duplicated between pod5 and pod1 or pod8 (which will likely be needed in a few cases). This reconversion is done with a new script based on work by Chas Williams. In some cases, the output is worse than the previous POD pages, but this is a more comprehensive conversion. This is only the first step, and this initial conversion has various problems. In addition, the file man pages that didn't have simple names have not been converted in this pass and will be added later. Some of the man pages have syntax problems and all of them have formatting errors. The next editing pass, coming shortly, will clean up most of the remaining mess.

=head1 SYNOPSIS
pretty-html-synopsis-20060228 Implement proper synopsis wrapping for HTML generation. This was done in three pieces. First, add HTML-specific tags to the POD to mark the synopsis for HTML purposes so that we can apply style information to it. Second, update the style sheet to indent all lines except for the first in the synopsis section. Third, add the appropriate S<> tags around option and argument pairs so that we don't wrap between the option and its argument. Unfortunately, due to the <I<foo>> style that looks nicer for other reasons, we have to use the very verbose S<<< >>>. Oh well.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
man1-editing-pass-20051209 Complete an initial editing and cleanup pass for all section one man pages. Fix various conversion problems, formatting inconsistencies, and obvious problems. Please note that no editing for content has yet been done; this is solely editing for formatting and correct conversion to POD. Also, add some additional section five man pages that were omitted from the first conversion run due to unusual file names, and globally replace CAVEATS with CAUTIONS in the man pages to match the original section name. The section one man pages should now be in reasonable shape and ready for additional review and further updates, although there are probably still remaining obvious problems. ==================== This delta was composed from multiple commits as part of the CVS->Git migration. The checkin message with each commit was inconsistent. The following are the additional commit messages. ==================== This file got the wrong name when it was originally committed. Fix.

the output includes the first line (name and short description) of the
online help entry for every B<vos> command.
