+#  Modification History
+
+#  Created on 11/06/98 by DanEspen (dje):
+#  - Use man2html to convert fvwm2 man pages to html.
+
+# Arg 1 is the man page name.
+# The man pages have to be installed so the man command can find them.
+# This has to be run from the directory where the output file is wanted.
+#
+# If you run, run_man2html.sh fvwm2, this creates "fvwm2.html" in
+# the current directory.

+# Embed the text with some adjustment:
+# Italics are shown in yellow.  References, (if there were any)
+# would be shown in cyan.  Unfortunately bold stuff in man pages
+# is lost.  Maybe in the man command, maybe in man2html.
+# Output looks pretty good anyway (to my eyes).
