- I don't believe there's a Frame interface for man pages, but I'm not
- sure. This is a FAQ, but I don't remember the FUR [Frequently Uttered
- Reply]. But...

- You don't really have to go digging through your dusty NROFF/TROFF
- notes. Just read the MAN(7) man page, which describes the special
- macros for man page formatting, and take a look at one or two of the
- man source files in your manpage directory as models. It really ain't
- very hard.
