Hey Steve,
Should these be in the man page or in the FAQ, or both?
I'm for brevity, so some examples in the man page to get
one started, but if we put every example in the man page
then it gets too huge (need to have every example?).
That's my opinion, but I do bend to the crowd, so opinions,
attitude, flames, suggestions, reactions, reflections are
all welcome here!!!!!
I'll hold off adding this to the man page until we get
some responses.
The FAQ needs work, so why don't we do something with it?
Carter

Man pages eh?
The below patch is one I've just written up from my recent Q about
finding non-returning TCP connections.
I've also added a quick line at the top in the Description about how
using ragator might be a "Good Thing(tm)".
FWIW, I'm a strong believer in copious examples; so I'd like to dig out
some of the common and not so common regular "queries" we run internally
for submission and add those - if agreeable?
All errors are now Carter's problem ;-)
HTH?
