>Description:
Yes, this is all one problem... (I sending these all separately would be quite annoying)
1. All the references to other manpages at the bottom of the send-pr
manpage are dead. There is no edit-pr, gnats, mkdist, etc... on either 1.4.1 or
1.5_ALPHA
2. the manpage could use a link to the web page
3. neither the manpage nor webpage tell me whether I need to put anything
in the subject field (does it get automatically generated from the synopsis field?)
4. since send-pr doesn't have a "view final" option, there's no way for me to test #3
before I send a pr
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to send a pr for the first time and look at the documentation.
>Fix:
Write some documentation.
