psman for those who lack ditroff (for OpenWindows 2)

[Paul Eggert]

The following 'psman' shell script is designed for OpenWindows 2 sites who
lack ditroff.  It is plug-compatible with the OW2 psman.  This shell
script is in the public domain.

'thack' is available from most comp.sources.misc servers (e.g. uunet).  I
believe the Rice server also has it.  The latest version of thack is patch
6.

#! /bin/sh

# Display man pages on OpenWindows 2 using thack.

# This command accepts the options of both pageview(1) and man(1);
# pageview options, if any, must come first.
