- ManOpen v1.1 by Harald Schlangmann July 20 1993
-
- Please send comments, suggestions, donations and your useful
- changes to schlangm@informatik.uni-muenchen.de.
-
- This program is provided ``AS IS'' and without any warranty.
- Nobody is allowed to request any money for this program.
-
- ManOpen is available at:
- ftp.informatik.uni-muenchen.de:pub/next/Tools/workspace
-
- Some points:
-
- ManOpen will open manual pages written in troff (nroff) syntax and is
- especially useful when browsing through source directories. ManOpen includes a
- cat2rtf converter which may also be used standalone. (Invoke with option -h to
- get help) cat2rtf was tested with output of both nroff as provided with
- NS3.0 and with gnroff (which generates nicer output). Formatting is somewhat
- nicer than that seen in Librarian.
-
- cat2rtf is implemented using a flex scanner description (cat2rtf.l). It should
- work with lex too. Anyway, flex output cat2rtf.c.flex is included with the
- ManOpen package.
-
- ManOpen registers the extension .man only. Other useful extensions (like .1)
- are used for other purposes too often (version numbers like TeXmenu4.1 for
- example ;-) ). Nevertheless any file selected in the WorkSpace may
- conveniently be opened using Service ``Open in ManOpen''. Please use
- Preferences.app to select a shortcut for this Service.
-
- Hope it will be of use for you - Harald Schlangmann.
