Description:
------------
When a function or feature has been deprecated, it would be really useful consistently to offer next to the 'deprecated' notice the current approved solution.  

For example, I was searching for a way to ensure that PC 8-bit ASCII characters display as expected and searched for 'code+page'.  I arrived at the manual page for a paradox extension (px_set_targetencoding) which is deprecated but offers no alternative (not that this is what I wanted, but it raised the issue).

Thank you for maintaining an excellent product and documentation.

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
