A#3.8: Chapter 1: Commands and Applications Chapter 2: System Calls Chapter 3: Library Routines Chapter 4: Devices Chapter 5: File Formats Chapter 6: Games Chapter 7: Miscellaneous Chapter 8: System Administration For GNO, there should be no need to use Chapter n [New Commands], or Chapter l (ell) [Local Commands], unless (in the latter case) the manual page is for something that is not to be released to the GNO community. Chapter 3F is reserved for Fortran Routines, of which there are none at this time (due to the lack of a publicly available Fortran compiler).
