Re: where to put documentation of programs that accompany libc?

[Roland McGrath <roland at redhat dot com>]

Having all these programs documented nicely in a GNU manual would be a
lovely contribution.

Either of these is fine.  It's easy enough to write the new Texinfo files
such that they can go either way as seems appropriate later on, without a
lot of work to make the switch.  Put each group of related programs
together in a distinct Texinfo file that can be a chapter/section
(e.g. localedef and locale, vs ldconfig, vs debugging helpers like
catchsegv or mtrace).

We do not deal in man pages.
