Paul,
Agreed. Is the Shorewall man page made available as html/pdf? I think we
should link then.

doc-build.sh code used to convert man pages to html and pdf.

           89 build_man () {
           90   cd "$TMP_DIR"/doc/man
           91   for f in *; do
           92     groff -t -mandoc -Thtml $f > $f.html
           93     groff -t -mandoc -Tps $f > $f.ps
           94     ps2pdf $f.ps
           95     rm $f.ps
           96   done
           97 }

I don't believe the BusyBox man pages are available on their site as
html/pdf. This might have changed, but it was the reason I placed the
man page in our repository.
