Unfortunately, this isn't the entire story. Yes, it seems that
you have to buy the text processing package to get the "man"
pages.
However, the man pages themselves are shipped as very bad nroff
output. You can't usefully run them through with a neater macro
package, or print them more neatly on your "better" nroff
printer, or use them with "troff" and your troff previewer.
