Hi Keith,

Can you tell me where in the GNU Coding Standards document that a 'man' target
that generates man pages is mandated?

Not saying it's a bad idea, I just can't locate the authority you're citing.

I looked here:

https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Man-Pages.html#index-man-pages

I also don't see "man" in the list of standard targets documented in GNU
Automake.

https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Standard-Targets.html#Standard-Targets

Regards,
Branden
