Ack! Someone promoting the notion of HTML based documentation. I think
you need to be thumped with a cluestick. =)
Yes, hyperlinks in documentation *IS* a good thing. HTML documentation
*IS* a nice thing to have. Sure, HTML prints out fairly nicely.
So does troff -T ps -man foo.man | lpr -Pprinter. Actually, that's what
*roff was meant *for*, typesetting.
A roff2html would be a nice thing to have, but having traditional
manpages is a must. Unless, of course, you plan to provide some kind
of html-documentation "search engine" ala apropos/man -k.
