Hi misc,
www/faq/faq7.html links to termcap(5) but the link is simply
http://man.openbsd.org/termcap, which ends up at termcap(3). A diff is
included below.
Also an observation: on faq7.html linked text often specify the specific
section that is being linked, but the actual links often do not. For
instance:
$ grep man.openbsd.org www/faq/faq7.html | head -n 10
<a href="http://man.openbsd.org/wscons">wscons(4)</a> console driver.
<a href="http://man.openbsd.org/wsconsctl">wsconsctl(8)</a> utility.
<a href="http://man.openbsd.org/wsconsctl">wsconsctl(8)</a>,
<a href="http://man.openbsd.org/wsmoused">wsmoused(8)</a>.
<a href="http://man.openbsd.org/rcctl">rcctl(8)</a> utility.
<a href="http://man.openbsd.org/vga">vga(4)</a>
<a href="http://man.openbsd.org/drm">drm(4)</a>.
<a href="http://man.openbsd.org/vga">vga(4)</a>
use the <a href="http://man.openbsd.org/wsconscfg">wsconscfg(8)</a>
<a href="http://man.openbsd.org/rc.local">rc.local(8)</a>
Most of the time there are no collisions, but sometimes there are (as in
the case of termcap). Is it a worthwhile exercise to update the links to
ensure that they point at the right sections?
