Based on http://{polyglotman, tkman}.sourceforge.net:
As of 22 June 2000 - PolyglotMan (rman) 3.0.9, and TkMan 2.1 are released.
They are at long last Open Source, under the Artistic License.
rman (3.0.8) is currently in non-free. TkMan has no official deb maintainer.
Unofficial deb for TkMan
I have repackaged TkMan. It is an unofficial package for woody (unstable).
TkMan is a graphical, hypertext manual page and Texinfo browser for UNIX.
More information about TkMan is at http.cs.berkeley.edu/~phelps/tcltk/.
It used to be in the non-free/doc section but has been orphaned by its
Unless I am mistaken it will not be in potato since it is orphaned by the
maintainer and because of the freeze.
I already contacted the maintainer and I am preparing a package for woody.

I seem to have broken TkMan on my Debian 2.0 i386 hamm system. It used

Error in startup script: unknown color name "
