asr-Manpages

Here is a set of humorous manual pages developed on alt.sysadmin.recovery (asr). The authors believe that these man pages document a set of really useful tools that for some strange reason are not included in any implementation of Unix and recommend them to be installed on every system. Finding them hilarious or finding them offensive, view at your own risk and remember their tong-in-chick nature (don't treat them seriously!).

Authors of the a.s.r. manpages include Nick Williams, Tim Bandy, Ingvar Mattsson, Abby Franquemont-Guillory, John Guthrie, Eric L. Pederson, Simon Burr, Kurt Hockenbury, Eric S. Raymond. The open-source Devian package is maintained by Pawel Wiecek (coven@debian.org).
