Hi Ingo,

I understand what you say as I was digging into the man/*roff/grot* etc...
For what I am doing I will stick with the man as it is. No worries colors
(or attributes) are not hard coded but configurable indeed. I discovered
the -i option for grotty to restore italic on .I was counter intuitive that
.I was mapped to underline.

In all case there is no danger that what I am doing pollute the man pages
in general, what I am producing is for me only and will never reach the
street, yet I enjoy playing with that thing (man pages), it is really a
hoby, yet when I got stuck with feature hidden in the binary (like -i for
grotty that I don't know how to forward the to grotty from man run
string... minor detail) I try asking if some knows, but I don't set my
expectations too high.

Cheers
