maybe man xxx | col -b > xxxtext -----Original Message----- From: Fent, Lee [mailto:lee.fent@esker.com] Sent: Tuesday, March 19, 2002 4:32 PM To: Suse Subject: [SLE] Trying to get text output of man pages Can someone tell me the command switches to get plain text output from man pages. I had it down once, but I can't remember it, and stupid me I didn't write it down anywhere. I'd just like to get the plain text output for several man pages so that I can take them off system on a floppy and read them on any machine.
