I have downloaded a program with a man-page in troff format.
How do I view it?

The naive approach would be to try:

$ man -l /path/to/man-page-file

There are probably other ways, but since this is specifically a man
page, that'd be my first attempt.


Worked like a charm. *THANK YOU*
As the file was large I did
   $ man -l /path/to/man-page-file > /path/to/my-reference-copy
