Re: [Patch] Adding examples to the man pages

[Alfred M. Szmidt]

   This is unfortunate, since coreutils contains tools which are
   heavily used by beginners as well as expert users.  

Beginners should read the info pages to begin with, since they contain
more useful information then the man pages.  So I fail to see how this
argument holds water. :)

   I, for one, welcome improvements to the manpages.

I wasn't objecting to them directly, but even so the man pages should
already direct the user to the info pages, and this information is far
better suited for the info pages.
