Hi:

I have succeeded in downloading both the FreeBSD Handbook and FAQ is ascii
format. My question is exactly what flavour of ascii are we talking about?

The downloaded versions I have are loaded with obscure formatting
information that refusese to be decoded by the many editors I have.

example:

Welcome to FreeBSD!  This handbook covers the installation and day to
     day use of FFrreeeeBBSSDD RReelleeaassee
22..22..22. This manual is a wwoorrkk iinn
pprrooggrreessss
     and is the work of many individuals.  

You see what I mean?

I would really love to format, print and read this document but I am unable
to decipher the code.

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards,

Brian.
