Dear users@,

Tired of having to spell "section" with a k when accessing FreeBSD or
OpenBSD man-pages?

We have a solution for you!

    http://mdoc.su/

It's a deterministic URL shortener for BSD manual pages, written
entirely in nginx.conf:

https://github.com/cnst/mdoc.su
https://bitbucket.org/cnst/mdoc.su

Some examples of supported addresses:

http://mdoc.su/DragonFly/development.7
http://mdoc.su/dfly/development.7
http://mdoc.su/d/development.7
http://mdoc.su/d/development

http://mdoc.su/o/ssh

http://mdoc.su/f/kqueue

http://mdoc.su/n/mtr

More usage details at the site. :-)

Cheers,
Constantine.
