Version:        1.5c
Entered-date:   1998-04-22
Description:    * man is a man pager. It has support for compressed pages
                (both man pages and cat pages), and for locale ($LANG)
                and for message catalogs ($LC_MESSAGES). It will format
                files given explicitly (man ./foo.man.gz).
                It conforms to FSSTND or FHS, and handles stray cats.
                Man pages now available in Czech, Danish, Dutch, English,
                French, German, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Slovenian
                and Spanish.
                * man2html is a utility that converts man pages to html
                * hman is a man browser that uses your favourite browser.
                For use with lynx, no http daemon is required.

I just put man-1.5c.tar.gz at ftp.win.tue.nl, sunsite.unc.edu and
tsx-11.mit.edu.  Only very minor things have changed.
One change that may be visible is that man now catches interrupts
while waiting for a child.

In the lesstif sources a man2html was called with the -f flag,
to do something that might be the default action of the present
man2html. I told it to ignore the -f flag when given for compatibility.
(By the way, it looks like the present man2html is uniformly
better than the Debian version, which is derived from the same
original code but lacks many fixes and improvements.)
