That is a very extensive list, thanks a lot! I especially like the konqueror option :-).

It would be especially great it such a program would list the available (Debian) readme's available in the /usr/share/doc directory. Anyone knows such a program?Various ways of reading man pages, documentation man pagename vim, :Man pagename emacs, M-x man konqueror, man:pagename info pagename pinfo pagename install dwww, and go to http://localhost/dwww/ in any browser install man2html and enter the address http://localhost/cgi-bin/man/man2html in any web browser. khelpcenter yelp and finally dont forget google :-) My favorites so far has been konqueror, dwww YMMV.

The description for dwww reads: Read all on-line documentation with a WWW browser All installed on-line documentation will be served via a local HTTP server. When possible, dwww converts the documentation to HTML. You need to install both a CGI-capable HTTP server and a WWW browser to read the documentation. I believe it will do what you want. Bob
