I would be even more bold...install apache web server and install dwww.
dwww is really nice, it lets you browse man pages AND everything under 
/usr/doc all from a web based interface. Just use <insert name of 
favorite web browser here> to acess it on http://yourhost/dwww
its really a sweet package

as for xman...I always did like xman..and really wanted to have it again
...I found dwww a few days ago and I forgot all about my longing
for xman...I feel whole again.
