I'm not SPAMing. I was having problems in getting on this mailing list
thus the duplicates (I wan't seeing them).
I know there are a number of Internet resources for X man page. I'm
looking for *real* man pages for X that I can install in one of my "man"
directories on my system. HTML files do not work well! On the
internet, you will find several variations from a standard. From a
person learning X, you don't want to know about those variations in the
beginning. An experience person can easily weed out what does not
work. Man pages provide more helpful information than "-help" or "--help".
It's been 10 years since I've used X. I've really lost a lot so I'm a
beginner again.
Not only is the "X" man page missing, the "xmodmap", "XWin", and "xinit"
man pages are missing too.

There is no reason to spam the list with duplicate queries.
