I am trying to figure out how to print 'man' pages. If I try a simple
redirect, such as: "man foo > foo.txt" the new file is loaded
with control symbols, etc. that are not really printable. I want to
save the files if possible, and print them out at a later date. It
that is not possible, how would I go about printing them out in real time?



And if you don't care about PostScript, (think this is in the FAQ or
fortune or some such);

man foo | col -bx > foo.txt
