Re: www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi

I was thinking more of having a Javascript implementation of OpenBSD so that you could type the 'man' command to get the page you are after. It will only increase the size of the page by about 400MB, and hard disk and CPU space is cheap. And everyone has infinite bandwidth internet. On Fri, 25

Now now, we can be more hipster than that.. a docker image that runs the man command for you after downloading all the openbsd man pages as a dependency - you can just deploy it automatically with vagrant and run it in AWS.. etc. After all, isn't there no simple command that can't be made better
