+A manual page reader, TkMan offers two major advantages over xman:
+hypertext links to other man pages (click on a word in the text which
+corresponds to a man page, and you jump there), and better navigation
+within long man pages with searches (both incremental and regular
+expression) and jumps to section headers.  TkMan also offers some
+convenience features, like a user-configurable list of commonly used man
+pages, a one-click printout, and integration of `whatis' and `apropos'.
+Further, one may highlight, as if with a yellow marker, arbitrary passages
+of text in man pages and subsequently jump directly to these passages by
+selecting an identifying excerpt from a pulldown menu.  Finally, TkMan
+gives one control over the directory-to-menu volume mapping of man pages
+with a capability similar to but superior to xman's mandesc in that rather
+than forcing all who share a man directory to follow a single organization,
+TkMan gives control to the individual.  In fact, one may decide he has no
+use for a large set of man pages--say for instance the programmer routines
+in volumes 2, 3, 4, 8--and eliminate them from his personal database.
