Hi,
Was wondering how to get "man" to output pages in plain text? I want
the basic formating (indentation & whatnot) but NOT the bold and other
special effects. Just ascii text I can grep through. I tried setting
the terminal type to "dumb" and the stupid thing still tries to do
back-space overstrike bolding (jeesh - even LA-120s had fancier print
capabilities than that, IIRC.)
-Thanks, Wayne
