Shows local manual pages as HTML in Dillo with clickable links to other manual pages. It uses the man(1) program to generate the HTML from the manual pages (with the -T html extension) and sed(1) to manipulate the HTML.
It comes with a CSS style file that improves the display of manual pages and can be modified to change the appearance.
To install the plugin use:
$ make install
The two files man.filter.dpi
and style.css
will be copied into
~/.dillo/dpi/man/
. Edit style.css
as needed.
The manual pages are accessed by the name of the manual page alone,
man:bash
, or with the section number in parenthesis to specify the
manual section, man:read(3)
.
Here are some examples to test it from the command line:
$ dillo man:git
$ dillo man:namespaces
$ dillo "man:groff(7)"
