When I've wanted to look at a man page for an uninstalled
package I've used http://manpages.debian.net .
It would more convenient to have *ALL* pages available locally.
Are they available to download as a set somewhere on the
web? [I use squeeze.]
I have copied all the .deb files from the 8 DVD install set
to a USB drive. How could I extract all the man pages?
TIA
Check out 'dwww'
To clarify my motivation:
1. divorce myself {as much as possible} from the web -
I'm on dial-up.
2. access all man pages {whether or not package
installed} using the man command.
I've also thought of another possible use for having copy of
all man pages available locally. Create a personalized
keyword search index.
