[Twisted-Python] Man Pages Project
As twisted's Debian maintainer, it bothers me greately that there are no man pages. I've started to write manpages for some of the utilities, available in doc/man/*.1. Please help me, and write a manpage for a utility today. I am strongly considering to package only things in bin/ with a manpage for twisted 0.9.5 Here is the list of utilities with a man page so far: faucet gnusto mktap twistd Here is the list of utilities without a man page malyon im mapeditor runtests twistd-debug Thanks for your co-operation -- Moshe Zadka - http://moshez.geek (if you're not cool, http://moshez.org is still working)

Yeah, I've been thinking that these (except for runtests) might be removed from the standard distribution too, actually...

Your manpage work is done. Ship it. :) ______ __ __ _____ _ _ | ____ | \_/ |_____] |_____| |_____| |_____ | | | | @ t w i s t e d m a t r i x . c o m http://twistedmatrix.com/users/glyph

runtests doesn't run, becuase pyunit is packaged differently in twisted and Debian.

Ship it. :)
Any date on .5? -- Moshe Zadka - http://moshez.geek (if you're not cool, http://moshez.org is still working)

Yep. Shouldn't be in the package.

Chris Armstrong is (should be!) working on a PB interaction tool, which Kevin Turner has cleverly (though tentatively) named "Manhole". I'd like to see that become marginally useful before pushing out a new v.; however, this next update will mostly be documentation. If Chris's stuff isn't ready within the next 3 days I'll push without it. Travis also mentioned that he wants to do some updates to twisted.web; I'll wait on those as well if they're going to be out within the next 3 days. ______ __ __ _____ _ _ | ____ | \_/ |_____] |_____| |_____| |_____ | | | | @ t w i s t e d m a t r i x . c o m http://twistedmatrix.com/users/glyph
