<dd>Hello all,<br><br>
<dd>I am nearing the end of the driver development and am crossing t's
and dotting i's. When running 'make distcheck-light' I am getting a very
large number of messages like the following:<br><br>
<dd>While in /nut/docs/man:<br>

list of files):<br><br>

<dd>(etc.)<br><br>
<dd>To the best of my knowledge I have not touched the long list of files
being processed (except for the new .txt file for the new
driver).<br><br>
<dd>Regarding documentation, I have place a new .txt file in
nut/docs/man and updated Makefile.am in SRC_SERIAL_PAGES,
MAN_SERIAL_PAGES, HTML_SERIAL_MANS, SrC_USB_LIBUSB_PAGES, and
HTML_USB_LIBUSB_MANS.<br><br>
<dd>Are there other sections of the Makefile.am or other files that need
to be modified for the man pages to be populated?<br><br>
<dd>Many thanks,<br><br>
