Summary: 
Keywords: 

Does anyone know of a way to create man pages without having to author 
them using the -man macros?  It seems to me that it might be possible to 
generate plain-text output from something a little more modern, like 
FrameMake, then place them in a /man?.cat directory.

Has anyone tried doing something like this?
