> Hi,
> 
> My name is Abhinav Upadhyay, I am a NetBSD user and developer. I would like to
> introduce http://man-k.org - a web interface to NetBSD's apropos(1). It is a
> full text search tool for man pages, providing support for searching FreeBSD,
> NetBSD, OpenBSD, Linux and Posix man pages.
> 
> Apart from full text search, the man pages have syntax highlighting (at least
> the mdoc(7) man pages have, see [1] for example). Also, the header includes in
> the man pages are hyperlinked to OpenGrok for looking up the header files
> (see [2] for an example). 
> 
> I have talked about it briefly at last year's EuroBSDCon and AsiaBSDCon in the
> context of applying machine learning to improve ranking in NetBSD's apropos(1).
> But it only had support for searching NetBSD man pages back then.
> 
> I would like to invite you all to use it and let me know of any feedback or
> suggestions you might have to improve it. :-)
