Hi!  Recently there was a discussion about replacing the current 386bsd man with
something better.  Someone posted the Net 2 man (thanks, though I haven't tried
it yet).

However, I have come to really like the perl rewrite of man Tom did for Convex
machines.  Has anyone brought this to 386bsd already?  If not, I will do it but
I currently have 102% on my 386bsd disk :-)

How about a man01 distribution?
