>Description:
The snapper(4) driver for macppc never had a man page supplied for it.
I've attached my work to create one.  (I based it on the awacs(4) man
page, and also had a look at what OpenBSD has; they also went off the
awacs(4) page by the looks of things...)

I tried to add a few salient points about its capabilities, but wasn't
sure how much detail would typically be of interest, so the information
is a bit cursory (but better than nothing).
