jhawk a5c0fa3864 Based on feedback (various), remove the .toc files from CVS,
and instead generate them each and every time (twice!).
Based on a suggestion from Alan Barrett, allow setting MAKETOC=no
to permit rebuilding the install notes without regenerating the
.toc files, to allow more speedy debugging of markup changes.

mycroft 149f0de4fa Use bsd.man.mk (maybe should be something else) instead of bsd.prog.mk, and
do the cleaning differently.

lukem 1742d8acf0 more work:
- use .Tn, .Bx, .Ul, .Key, .Sq, .Dq, .Li, .Dl, (etc) ... as appropriate
- be more consistent between various ports' install notes
- other cleanups
2000-10-29 14:08:04 +00:00
lukem 54b38d4691 - update whatis files to contain (hopefully) up to date info on:
- "this is the xxx major release"
	- features added and bugs fixed in 1.5
- use .Nx instead of NetBSD
- use .Sq instead of ' [...] ' or ` [ ... ] '
- use .Dq instead of " [...] "

lukem b4d52d9d24 major terraform (this is MUCH more than a rototill :-), including:
- update for 1.5 (still more MD stuff to check)
- use new macros in ../common/macros as appropriate
- introduce some CONSISTENCY between the various ports' install docs
- use various mdoc macros as appropriate, including .Li, .Pa, .Sy, and .Ic.
- migrate more stuff into ../common/*
- whitespace cleanup
- lots of other little things i'm sure...

lukem c8d0b98254 migrate */contents -> common/contents, as there was *way* too much
unnecessary duplication.  wrap the MD stuff in  .if r_foo \{\  ...  .\}

ender 5f92800c39 Add a paragraph warning the user that a MacOS partition is still necessary

ross c130e42b2e * Delete sun3x from SUBDIR
* The merged contents file didn't work out, so nuke it and put it back
  into each port directory. Most still have the now-pointless conditionals;
  these now should be deleted.

between platform distributions.

garbled 851ee9e397 1) Remove all vestiges of tar from src/distrib. Use pax and appropriate
commandlines for all tar operations.  (work supplied by Matt Green)
2) Update arch/*/md.c to deal with new sysinst/run.c.  Special case
anything that needs to do a redirect or a pipe.
3) #if 0 some unused code in target.c. This code will need to be updated,
or special cased with do_system.

Big thank you to Matt for all his work on this.
