Description-en: converter from DocBook SGML into roff man macros
docbook-to-man is a batch converter that transforms UNIX-style manpages from
the DocBook SGML format into nroff/troff man macros.
.
This is not the original version by Fred Dalrymple, but one with the
modifications by David Bolen.
.
docbook-to-man lacks support for internationalization and utf-8. Other
tools like docbook2man or docbook-xml with xsltproc are better suited for
new projects.
