Hello, the man(1) program (together with groff) can generate HTML via the -H switch, e.g., man -H ls.
The environment variable BROWSER names the default HTML browser man will use to display this page, lynx(1) if unset. Recent versions of man(1) now wait longer before deleting the rendered HTML file, allowing slower browsers to work as well. As of CYGWIN_NT-10.0-1942, setting BROWSER to cygstart works for me: my default browser, Chrome, creates a new tab page with the man page. I think this would be a worthwhile addition to /etc/skel/.bashrc (and so on), for example: case $(uname) in (CYGWIN_NT-*) export BROWSER=cygstart esac -- Konrad -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
