Danger
This software comes with no warranty, and is not meant to be used in hospitals, power facilities, businesses, homes, or any computer, not even your computer. The security of these scripts is the worst in the universe. Do not run these scripts unless you want to be pwned like never before in your life.
Basically some stuff I did back in 2011 just for fun, but never published. See an example of the output here
This is thin CGI wrapper around man2html, so that it is more usable and looks prettier.
It makes used of the stylesheet included in style/simple.css
Also check out the example htaccess, though I would strongly suggest you don't use it
Call it without arguments to use as CGI script. Use man.sh [section] page
to render a single page to HTML.
Let's face it: configuring and running a web server is too much of a burden. After all, what is a HTTP server but a text processor. server.sh is a web server written in shell, using netcat. It can run the man.sh cgi script (but probably not any other script, as it does not set env variables!).
Start it with server.sh serve
.
Sometimes it does not respond to Control-C so it's necessary to kill it. It should be possible to solve it by some use of subshells, but...
