In the listing of field names in ra manpage, you have:

"status      transaction status"
   There is no such fieldname. It is called "state", not "status".

"suser       source user date buffer"
   It should be "data", not "date".

"dvlan       destination user date buffer"
   Double typo, it should be "duser" and "data".

At the end of the manual in the "See also" section, there should be a
reference to rarc (and possibly other ra* commands as well imho).



The rastrip manpage state that when you run rastrip with no dsrs
specified, Rastrip removes the default set of dsrs.
If I run 'rastrip -M -r in.log -w out.log', nothing happen. The rastrip
command don't even exit. The only thing left to do is to press ctrl-c.

Apparently it is meant that I should remove the -M option all together,
but my interpretation of the manual is that -M should be present and only
the sub-options (dsrs) should be removed to get the default behavior.

...Also, the keyword [replace] is not explained anywhere in the manpage.
