My point about the man page system is that it is made artifically difficult
for a user/programmer to add their own man pages without buying old nroff
software, or knowing about awf.  (woof woof bark bark awf awf arf arf)

Man pages should by dynamic, read/write, not only read/browse.  They should be
much more adaptable (printers,terminals,formatters(TeX), spoolers, and
indexable (keyword))

I like the increased speed, and I look forward to hashed man page stuff.  Hope
you don't ignore speeding up my local man pages.
