hi there,

the port i am working on uses a2x to turn text files into man pages.
i have noticed that the generated man pages are full of html entity
codes for characters like "'" and others.

for example:

Don't

is turned into:

Don’t


the files were generated with:

/usr/local/bin/a2x.py -d manpage  -f manpage file.txt


how can i make this go away?  i see other ports using a2x
but in more creative ways like a2x + xmlto.

is using only a2x for generating man pages broken?

-f
