gdm team: Attached please find the GDM man pages that Sun created in SGML format. I'm not sure if the GDM team wants the man pages in SGML or NROFF format. I understand it isn't hard to convert them using the correct transform, but I'm not familiar with how to do this. Also, the ATTRIBUTES section probably should be removed for the public CVS since this section is Sun specific. Note that the gdm.1 manpage is the long version that George didn't like. The Sun docs team decided not to use the shorter version that references the gdm yelp docs because gdm does not currently install the gdm yelp docs. But once these docs are installed, Sun is planning to change the gdm.1 man page to reference them instead of including sections that contain duplicated information, but that'll probably happen in a future release. If someone gets the gdm yelp docs so that they are installed, then the "XDMCP", "CONTROLLING GDM", "SECURITY", "ACCESSIBILITY", and "LOGGING" sections could be removed from the gdm.1 man page and instead replaced with a reference to look in the yelp docs. Would someone be willing to help get these files into the GDM CVS. As mentioned above, there's still some work to do, but it should be fairly straightforward if there is someone familiar with doing this sort of work. Thanks! -- Brian
