In response to my question about plain
text from man, H. K. advised,
" give ps2ascii or pstotext a try".
ps2ascii works. Thanks H.K.
The {n,t}roffs appear quite powerful.
I wonder whether there is a way to pass
an argument through man to {g,n,t?}roff
telling it to produce plain text for
display by a proportional font?
Specifying the line width would be a
nice detail.
Thanks, Peter E.
