Minimal is my goal :) I'm not sure I grok the difference between --lr-man and --man, but my idea is simply to have luarocks use it's existing support code to give me a list of directories with man hierarchies inside so that I can distribute supplemental man pages with my rocks and be able to get at them inside the unix man sub-system. I don't have (or really see) the need to have luarocks doc become a man page reader. I'll try to send an initial pull request in the next few days. Cheers, -- Gary V. Vaughan (gary AT vaughan DOT pe)
