Basic Information on docman

Task: docman
Purpose: Format Miriad *doc files as a man page
Categories: tools

docman is a tool that formats a MIRIAD .doc file into an even less 
readable form: the unix man format. However, with X windows utilities 
like xman or hman, a much more superior online help system is created.
Within miriad a script 'mir.man' or alias 'mirman' should be present
to aid in starting up a windows based man browser.
Optionally a section number can be passed to the output man file.

Usage:
              docman [-section] file.doc > file.man
