They exist for all the cli's: server, demo, amin and mailgw 8-).  They
are useful for a fast check when the cli help isn't enough. I am not
sure that they will be useful once setup.py has to be replaced with
another packaging config file. Other packaging configuration methods
don't have a way to put files like this in a normal system
directory.

roundup-admin may need a option to do the local system install, or a
roundup-postinstall program may be needed to link/install files under
the share subdirecotry tree of /us or /usr/local or oher prefix.

I checked the nroff case and that looks good, thanks.

I just updated the header timestamp to today and added a security
oriented example. Does this example look correct?


    You can also set properties directly on the issue class. If
    your tracker's issue has a "private" property that limits
    who can view an issue and its messages:

      security: |/tools/roundup/bin/roundup-mailgw
		 -S "issue.private=true" -S "issue.keyword+=security"
		 /var/roundup/sysadmin

    would set the private property on a issue to restrict
    visiblity and mark the issue as a security topic using a
    keyword.

Have a great rest of your Sunday.
