How about:
-t Generate a Postscript version of the manpage, intended for
printing, by using /usr/bin/groff -S -man to format the manual
page, passing the output to stdout. The output from
/usr/bin/groff -S -man may need to be passed through some
filter or another before being printed.
That way I can do /print in less and still get some useful hint.
You all know that groff is thirdparty software, right? We have to take
this with the groff developers, if the change is ever going to be
imported in FreeBSD.
Hmm, no I didn't realize that. Guess that's too much work for such a minor
change :(
Except that (if I read the thread right) the proposed change is
actually to the man page for man, not the man page for groff. ;)
Might suffer similar "ownership" and maintenance issues, but I doubt
it. If man's not part of the native BSD core, what is?
