25a5737a0f Add some more macro advice and correct spelling of ``parentheses''. 1997-12-07 20:19:20 +00:00
Garrett Wollman
c9c42d0aa7 Added some advice to avoid typedef'ing structures, as this breaks 
information-hiding.  Also recommended against naming typedefs to end
in _t unless POSIX or ANSI requires it, and in favor of using queue(3)
macros to generate lists rather than rolling one's own.

d134e17633 Cleaned up synopsis: 
- don't quote function names, since quoting them is unnecessary and
  unusual and confuses my synopsis checker.
- include <sys/types.h> instead of <sys/param.h>.  It is normal to
  (have to) include <sys/param.h> instead of <sys/types.h>, but it
  is more useful for man pages to document minimal prerequisites.

29ea3efb24 Fixed synopsis: 
- don't declare nonexistent function sleep().
- don't include <sys/errno.h> explicitly.

sleep() should be nuked some more, e.g., this man page should not be
named after a nonexistent function.

fab63cc413 This is the current draft of my filesystem manpages. Some files are 
incomplete and some are just placeholders but I wanted to try to get
something at least into 2.2 on the grounds that what I have is a lot
better than nothing.  I also wanted to commit something which documents
the interfaces in 2.2 before I start updating the documentation for 3.0.

This is a definite 2.2 candidate and is also relavent to 2.1 if people
still care about that branch.
