The covers of the manuals on the vol1.pdf in /sys/man and in the
vol2.pdf in my contrib dir (/n/sources/contrib/pietro) is the same ol'
Lucida Sans. It's a nice font family. My question is why it lacks fs,
ffs, etc. You'll see Peter's face in the back of the troff manual
where they should be.
Is that - Industrial LT Std Solid - the same font used in the logo
with Glenda on a black background?
