Do you cite that differently from other books?
I know you know Biblatex:
@Book{dyson,
author = {Peter Dyson},
title = {The Unix Desk Reference: The hu.man Pages},
publisher = {SYBEX},
year = 1996,
ISBN = {0-7821-1658-2}}
By the way, I think it was gnuplot: the first time you
use it it outputs an entry just like that how to cite
it in a paper!
While I think that is a bit silly, software COULD come
with an option, e.g. --cite so you could output it
that way (and/or it could be mentioned in the man
page). Why not? It is easy to do and some people would
actually use it as well.
