I'm afraid it isn't that easy. nmap.1 is generated from DocBook source (docs/nmap.xml in the Nmap tarball) using xsltproc. The best solution would be to fix whatever part of the toolchain is producing the invalid nroff. If you have suggestions or ideas, I'd be happy to hear them. We use DocBook as the official man page source because we also generate HTML and PDF versions. Cheers, -F -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
