mkso:
I'm not done mkso yet (mkso is the program that creates
the .so links required for the various manual pages). I
still have to make it check for the legality of file names
on the current file system. I also plan to make it such
that one can place those .so links that require HFS on
another partition, and still have them find the sourced
files.
