Subject: manpages: wishlist: re_format(7) should point to regex(7)
Date: Sun, 15 Feb 2004 17:14:23 -0800
Package: manpages
Severity: wishlist
Version: 1.62-1
I discovered some documentation(for postfix) that refers to the re_format(7)
man page for how to create POSIX regexs(on Debian this info is provided as the
regex(7) man page). This is probably because several other UN*X based OSes
provide it as re_format(7). Could it be setup so that "man re_format" works as
well?
Thanks,
