Given some DSSSL magic, they can even turn it in to links to an online CGI manual page reference. Sadly, it's a pain in the backside to type. So I'm trying to get people to use the same approach the FreeBSD Documentation Project uses. See http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/doc/share/sgml/man-refs.ent for the file that contains the entities, and http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/doc/en_US.ISO_8859-1/books/handbook/book.sgml for an example of how to load that file in to your document. Your example above would then become: <para>One great utility is &man.grep.1;, and is very helpful while searching for something inside text files.</para> N -- Internet connection, $19.95 a month. Computer, $799.95. Modem, $149.95. Telephone line, $24.95 a month. Software, free. USENET transmission, hundreds if not thousands of dollars. Thinking before posting, priceless. Somethings in life you can't buy. For everything else, there's MasterCard. -- Graham Reed, in the Scary Devil Monastery
