i share your frustration with linux man-pages.

man pages are a handy quick reference. info was intended to be the opposite, ie. a comprehensive reference and as such IMO should complement the man pages and _not_ replace it.

i find man pages very useful on all *nix _except_ linux.

i guess there isn't much we can do about it other than complain.
