Log:
SVN rev 213317 on 2010-10-01 03:59:18Z by gordon
Implementaiton of man, manpath, whatis, and apropos written entirely in sh.
Features of this new version in favor of the old one:
BSD licensed -- old one is GPL.
Imports configuration from /etc/man.conf and LOCALBASE/etc/man.d/*.conf
allowing ports to extend the base functionality. The pluggable
configuration can supplement the manual search path (retiring use.perl),
add locales, and override language specific toolsets (attempt to merge
the japanese/man port into the base system as much as possible).
Much effort has been made to make this version mirror the functionality
of the existing implementation. For 99% of users, it should be a drop in
replacement.
