软件包摘要
Convert nroff man pages to HTML
历史
项目历史与用法
man2html is a Perl program that reads formatted nroff text from standard input and writes an HTML document to standard output. The official site also documents a CGI program for browsing a system's manual pages through a web browser.
项目历史
The official NonGNU page says man2html was maintained solely by Earl Hood before it became a Savannah project in May 2003. The last pre-Savannah public release was version 3.0.1 in 1997, which the project continued to make available from CPAN-era distribution locations and the Savannah download area.
After the Savannah move, the project lived in GNU Savannah's NonGNU infrastructure with CVS, mailing-list archives, and project downloads. That makes it a small but historically useful bridge between roff manual pages and early web-based documentation browsing.
采用历史
man2html appears in traditional Unix and Linux packaging because it solves a narrow problem with few moving parts: convert formatted manual-page output into HTML, optionally behind a CGI interface. Its package-manager role is mostly as a compatibility utility rather than a modern documentation platform.
Homebrew, Debian, Fedora, Arch, and Ubuntu package names show continuing downstream availability even though the upstream history is sparse and old.
使用方式
The CLI reads formatted nroff from standard input and emits HTML on standard output, which makes it naturally scriptable with `man`, `nroff`, or documentation-generation jobs. The CGI component is for hypertext navigation over installed man pages.
Because it works on formatted nroff rather than owning a whole man-page database, man2html is often paired with existing manual systems rather than replacing them.
为什么软件包爱好者会关心
man2html is package-nerd interesting because it preserves an older Unix documentation pattern: turn local manual pages into web pages without introducing a large documentation stack.
Its official sources are thin, so the safe history is short: Earl Hood maintenance, a 1997 pre-Savannah release, and migration to Savannah in 2003.
时间线
- 1997: Last pre-Savannah public release, version 3.0.1.
- 2003: man2html became a Savannah project.
- 2003: The official NonGNU page records the Savannah, CVS, and mailing-list project links.
Related projects
- man2html sits beside man-db, mandoc, groff, nroff, and CGI manual-page browsers in the Unix documentation ecosystem.
- Its role overlaps with HTML output modes in newer tools such as mandoc, but its design is simpler and older.
