Patch to the docs
I'm not sure I'm happy with such a change. Many users still follow the handbook read from another system, print-out or from the same system but without copy/paste possibility. Such fingerprints make it damn hard to do this correctly. The longer keys are already a nuisance (as #gentoo has told me a few months back).

Can then we put the other option as an alternative then? the XML handbook ain't around anymore, and there's the "discussion" tab on the wiki for suggestions. closing. |
