Is that a stethoscope?
Well I didn't run across anything perfect (i.e. quick, easy, and brainless)
so since html can always be converted to plain text, the manpage might as
well be done in html as in plain text in the first place. Then if an
html-to-manpage converter comes to light in time, I'll use it, otherwise
it's not that hard to convert plain text to nroff by hand, even if it has
to be done for each C-Kermit release.
