-mdocml is a suite of tools compiling mdoc, the roff macro package of choice for
-BSD manual pages, and man, the predominant historical package for UNIX manuals.
-It is small, ISO C, ISC-licensed, and quite fast.
-
-The tool set features mandoc, based on the libmandoc validating compiler, to
-format output for UNIX terminals (with support for wide-character locales),
-XHTML, HTML, PostScript, and PDF. It also includes preconv, for recoding
-multibyte manuals; demandoc, for emitting only text parts of manuals; mandocdb,
-for indexing manuals; and apropos, whatis, and man.cgi (via catman) for
-semantic search of manual content.
-
-There is an environment variable called REPLACE_MAN, that if set to a non-empty
-string, will instruct the slackbuild script to replace the stock man package
-(you should remove(pkg) it first, though).
-
-After installing, make sure to (re)create the mandoc specific "whatis"
-database(s) in your manpath(s), eg.:
-# mandocdb /usr/man /usr/local/man
-... or, if you've chosen to replace man, then:
-# makewhatis /usr/man /usr/local/man
