PolyglotMan takes man pages from most of the popular flavors of UNIX and
transforms them into any of a number of text source formats. PolyglotMan
was formerly known as RosettaMan. The name of the binary is still called
rman , for scripts that depend on that name; mnemonically, just think
"reverse man". Previously PolyglotMan required pages to be formatted by
nroff prior to its processing. With version 3.0, it prefers [tn]roff source
and usually produces results that are better yet. And source processing is
the only way to translate tables. Source format translation is not as
mature as formatted, however, so try formatted translation as a backup.
