:Well, I worry a situation like this:

:2) He/She look 'SEE ALSO cu(1)'
:3) OK, `man cu`
:4) Oh! This is tip's manual!

:Ah, just now, I've saw FreeBSD's man page of tip. I think that their idea is good
:and the problem is solved. How about importing this man page to DragonFly?

    Hmm.  I didn't notice that tip's manual page and cu's manual page
