a manpage, and they're so simple I can't be bothered doing ones for them
(they don't even have sections in the manual).
Also fixed a few minor things relating to manpages.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.valgrind.org/valgrind/trunk@10744
- Added a manpage for ms_print.
- Added docs/xml/manpages-index.xml, which is just used as a convenient
single file to hang all the man pages off so they can be generated in a
single command.
- Added facility whereby manpage generation will attempt to find the
stylesheet in multiple places. This means I don't have to constantly edit
XSL_MAN_STYLE to build manpages on my machine.
- Changed vg-docs-path to start with $INSTALL instead of /usr/, because we
can't assume that's the installation dir.
git-svn-id: svn://svn.valgrind.org/valgrind/trunk@10740
- Actually remove the dead docs/images/massif*.png files (this was meant to
happen in r10720).
- Inline $TOOL/docs/Makefile.am into $TOOL/Makefile.am for all 10 tools. 10
fewer Makefile.am files FTW!
git-svn-id: svn://svn.valgrind.org/valgrind/trunk@10721
- Use "heap blocks" rather than "malloc'd blocks" as heap blocks covers
calloc, realloc, new, new[], memalign, etc.
- Used "GDB" and "GCC" throughout rather than "gcc" and "gdb".
- Made various tag uses more consistent.
- Greatly clarified the instructions on --xml=yes and its friends.
- Lots of other little improvements and fixes to out-of-date things and
Linux-centric things, mostly in Section 2.

line options. This commit changes them to all <option>.
Also make consistent how options with multiple names (eg. -h --help) are
shown.
Also, remove section describing --help and --version in Callgrind's chapter;
these aren't necessary and are presumably a hangover from when Callgrind was
a separate tool.

- There were detailed descriptions of all the tools in the Quick Start
Guide, the Manual introduction, and the start of each tool chapter. To
avoid duplication/overlap, I removed these altogether from the Quick Start
Guide, and shortened them in the intro.
- Improved the description of what errors Memcheck can find.
- Made all tool chapters start with "Overview" section, for consistency.
- Made the "run with --tool=XXX" bit consistent in each tool chapter.
- Made all tool chapter titles match the description given when running them.
- Added BBV to the User Manual intro.
- Generally clarified, updated, and future-proofed various bits of text in
the Quick Start Guide and User Manual introduction.
Also:
- Changed Nulgrind's start-up description to "the minimal Valgrind tool".
- Fixed some punctuation in the usage message.

wrote into the parent's output file even if %p was specified.
Josef, I think Callgrind does not have this bug, but you might want to say
something about forking in the manual, as I have done for Massif and
Cachegrind.

- Added a new time unit, instructions executed, and made it the default -- it's
much more reproducible and consistent than milliseconds. Requires IRSB
instrumentation and so slows down some programs (malloc-light ones such as
bzip2) by about 20%, others by less.
- ms_print now doesn't overwrite the x-axis in the graphs.
- Added a test for --detailed-freq and --max-snapshots
git-svn-id: svn://svn.valgrind.org/valgrind/trunk@7229
- ms_main.c: completely overhauled.
- massif/tests/*: lots of them now.
- massif/perf/: added.
- massif/hp2ps: removed. No longer used.
- vg_regtest: renamed the previously unused "posttest" notion to "post".
Using it for checking ms_print's output.
Although the code has changed dramatically, as has the form of the tool's
output, the information presented in the output is basically the same,
although it's now (hopefully) much more useful. So the tool name is
unchanged.

converted by Donna. Hooked it into the build system so they are only
built when specifically asked for, and when doing "make dist".
They're not perfect; in particular, there are the following problems:
- The plain-text FAQ should be built from FAQ.xml, but this is not
currently done. (The text FAQ has been left in for now.)
- The PS/PDF building doesn't work -- it fails with an incomprehensible
error message which I haven't yet deciphered.
Nonetheless, I'm putting it in so others can see it.

dist". This avoids the need to put it in "EXTRA_DIST", and saves a few lines
in all the docs Makefile.am files.
