I just sent mail to the javadoc email
addr and Doug K. asked me to (re)submit
this so that there would be a recent entry.

I humbly request that javadoc takes some kind
of "-r directory" flag which tells it
to document all packages in the specified
directory. If given, then you don't have to 
specify each and every package on the cmd line.

I suspect that for a big run on some archs you'd
get an exec voilation of you have too long of
a cmd line.

WORK AROUND Name: clC74495 Date: 09/22/98 Figure out all the packages yourself w/ a shell script that probably involves 'find' -but this is only an approximation and is a hassle. ======================================================================
