:Well, hacking up a shell script to do this would be simple, but are
:you sure you *really* want to do it? On a typical UNIX system, this
:would produce thousands of pages. I would suggest that you order a set
:of printed docs from your vendor -- it will be cheaper and the manuals
:will be nicer printed.

We use 'man -t' to print our man pages.  Since the customer can also
do this (providing he's got a nice printer to output the troff to),
it should be equally pretty.    Of course, that assumes you've got
a man that groks -t.
