man-pages-3.19 is released

I've uploaded man-pages-3.19 into the release directory (or view the online pages). The most notable change in man-pages-3.19 is the addition of four pages describing the POSIX interval timers API: timer_create(2), timer_settime(2), timer_getoverrun(2), and timer_delete(2).

man-pages-3.18 is released

I've uploaded man-pages-3.18 (my one hundredth release as maintainer!) into the release directory (or view the online pages). Notable changes in man-pages-3.18 are:

• 4 new pages describing character sets: armscii-8(7), iso_8859-11(7), iso_8859-4(7), and iso _8859-6(7). Thanks once again to Lefteris Dimitroulakis for contributing!


• A new pthread_kill(3) page documents pthread_kill().


• A new pthread_kill_other_threads_np(3) page documents pthread_kill_other_threads_np().


• A new pthread_sigmask(3) page documents pthread_sigmask().


• The clock_getres(2) page was moved from Section 3 to Section 2 (since the interfaces it describes really are system calls, not library functions), and adds a description of CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW, new in 2.6.28.


• Some bugs were fixed in select_tut(2) and many changes and tidy-ups were made to the text.
