With udf and udftools I got two manuals.
With a text editor they are pritty unreadable as they contain some formating code starting with a . (dot)
What program is to be used for such manuals (I tried man but that doesn't work)

For the record, you do something like this:
man2html dermanual.1 > dermanual.html
Just so people who see this don't have to ask

I've begun to do this with every program I compile, and place the results into /usr/share/doc. Then you can use the man command to view the manual.
For programs that come with several man pages they can be placed into a subdirectory of /usr/share/doc, and then you will get an index with links to each page when you use man.

Good thing you mentioned that, Nathan, I was thinking of asking Barry if additional html "man"-pages will be recognised.Nathan F wrote:I've begun to do this with every program I compile, and place the results into /usr/share/doc.
