No. From a Texinfo source, directly or indirectly, we can build Info, HTML, PS, DVI, Docbook and custom XML outputs; manual pages are not supported because the structure of the source is completely different. I understand that people are accustomed to manual pages, which are a portable format, while Texinfo may not be readily available on all the platforms; so the transition to Texinfo would raise some user dissatisfaction. Anyway, I will try to allocate some time to do the port, because one of the characteristics of my packages is good (I hope) documentation in Texinfo format; I want to distribute my cURL binding along with good cURL documentation. I would like to know if someone here is interested in being beta-reader for the result, which would help me a lot. >> And what copyright notice and license should I use? > > A conversion will not change copyright nor license so > you'd keep the ones already in use: I figure all man pages > have my copyright and the standard curl source MIT license > header.
