This was posted previously on the list to load up man pages using Preview:
man -t bash | open -a preview -f
Maybe that would do a better job. Of course you would replace bash with
whatever command you actually wanted man pages for. I found it was
somewhat readable with VO but sometimes jumped around a bit. For
example, it sometimes would jump to the footer to read that and then
come back up to where I was reading elsewhere on the page.

is there an easier to get info on a command in terminal. the man pages read,
but in a broken fashion that makes finding the relevant information
frustratingly difficult. the page won't read every line when the down arrow is
depressed. this forces me to interact in word mode to find out what was not
said.
there has to be another, better way. I have also tried the online html pages
that are recoded man pages, only to get a similar result (meaning that the
reading of these pages is not smooth and feels entirely broken).
