Re: online man page url format?

[Matthew Dillon <dillon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

    They were changed a while back... several months ago, when
    I changed the manual page CGI interface.  The original 
    interface supported both forms.  The new one only supports the
    new form.  The old '+' form doesn't work for manual pages with
    '+'s in them.

:> Hi,

:> were there changes in the software handling our online man pages
:(http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/cgi/web-man)? I'm asking because none of
:the man page links in the Wiki handbook work any longer. And I'm sure
:they used to work at some point.
:
:They did work - I don't know what caused the change, but I did make a
:change when Rongsheng Fang pointed out that the links were broken in the
:handbook:

:Though it wasn't broken when it used that format before - just glitchy.

:The man page cgi is not in CVS, so I can't check the history there.
