Gentlemen,
man cat says
SEE ALSO
tac(1)
The full documentation for cat is maintained as a Texinfo manual. If
the info and cat programs are properly installed at your site, the com-
mand
info coreutils 'cat invocation'
should give you access to the complete manual.
Same with the rest of coreutils.
But man xargs just says
SEE ALSO
find(1), locate(1), locatedb(5), updatedb(1), fork(2), execvp(3),
kill(1), signal(7), Finding Files (on-line in Info, or printed)
Man find says
SEE ALSO
locate(1), locatedb(5), updatedb(1), xargs(1), chmod(1), fnmatch(3),
regex(7), stat(2), lstat(2), ls(1), printf(3), strftime(3), ctime(3),
Finding Files (on-line in Info, or printed).
Kindly standardize on the coreutils style. The findutils style is too
cryptic and easily missed.
Also embed
(info "(find) Invoking find"),
(info "(find) Invoking xargs"), etc.
into the man page to make it even easier to get to the info page via
Emacs C-x C-e. And let's hope coreutils will do that too.
