[lojban-beginners] Re: gismu.txt & cmavo.txt to Manpages



I suppose I should have explained it, however people that have a use for it 
knows what this is.

Basically install perl, grab gismu.txt, cmavo.txt, dos2unix them, put them in 
a directory, with this script, run the script, it will generate a 
directory "man8jbo" which contains a file for every gismu and cmavo, that has 
also been gzip compressed. Put those somewhere in your MANPATH, then type:
$ man 8jbo <gismu|cmavo>
in order to look up a word.

More information on man here:

A novice was trying to fix a broken Lisp machine by turning the power off and 
on. 
Knight, seeing what the student was doing, spoke sternly: "You cannot fix a 
machine by just power-cycling it with no understanding of what is going 
wrong." 
Knight turned the machine off and on. 
The machine worked.
