Comment:
FYI: As of Leopard also Apple ships gzipped man pages.
a) If you really need a fast full text search for man pages (e.g index
based), go to the man people and ask there.
b) From ManOpen's description: "it will display the output from the `man'
command-line program." man can read gzipped man pages, so would ManOpen,
right?
I can't test as it does not build for me.
I don't want to start a reopen/close war by closing this again, but we are
not going to change anything.
