Of course. But your recomendation of starting with a package included on the distro because he is on dial up, is not valid, because the sources are no longer included. That's what I meant.
Not sure if you always need the sourcecode to work on documentation. But then that must be worked out with the developer.
Well, I think that what you want is not available and the way you want it, not possible and this list not qualified.
Why not? Wouldn't you like to improve linux and opensuse ? :-P
I am not saying it is not possible, I am saying it is not possible with what is asked and especialy the extra things added afterwards. Perhaps the questions needs to be reformulated with a clear objective and also clear explanation of what will not be possible. Many programs are just scripts and that still do not have very good documentation. Because they are just script, you have the sourcecode the moment you have the binary. That could already be a start. So what is the question and what are the limitations? It is clear that at this moment there is no one place of all Linux documentation for programs. houghi -- Nutze die Zeit.
