New man

Hi,

I've pushed my new version of man. I'm posting this as "not resolved" because I need support: your tests! And comments, advice, etc.

Some specific points:

- There's an extensive comment on the regexp converting HTML to text. I see two approaches: strip it before install, like Aleksej does in tazpkg; or move the comment into a README. What do you think?

- There's a line declaring several variables as local. I've let it for now, but I don't see its point (bash gives an error when local is used out of a function; ash doesn't complain but the command seems to have no effect). You're welcome to enlighten me!

Hi Lucas,

I like Aleksej's strip. Comments are at the right place, in the same file.

Local is useless? remove it. Keep is simple.

@ Aleksej,

Can you tell me what I did wrong, which caused the "w" gettext string to be commented out in po files?

Re: New man

Hello Lucas,

Nothing wrong you did. This is my shortcoming. I already fixed it: I forgot to add keyword "_" to xgettext invocation. That time I just edited ".po" files manually, not via "make pot; make msgmerge". Now I did it "official way".
