1. small X/GTK+ based man(1) front-end Gman is nothing else but only a simple front-end for the original man page system. The most basic job of gman is to build a database for all the man pages and display them (or part of them) on the screen. When user decides to read a man page, gman will launch a terminal window and call the original man system to display the man page in the window. Gman can launch more than one terminal window at same time. And user can use the index search function to look for the man pages that he needs. It's simple, but it's useful. From Debian 3.0r0 APT
