>It takes awhile to get used to man pages.  I prefer the help menus of 
OpenVMS, myself.

Ah, yes.  But nothing is so handy as `man -k`  I am of the opinion that 
subsequent online documentation features across most platforms (ie. 
Solaris Documentation Server) have failed, at least insofaras people still 
overwhelmingly rely on `man` for online help.  Especially since virtually 
anyone can write a man page and install it to a system, either as part of 
a package or on its own.  It's just one of those things.  Heck, even 
non-root users can transparently augment the man pages available to them 
simply by adding any path to their $MANPATH shell variable.  Personally, I 
don't think I could live without them.  I sure would own a lot more dusty 
books, that's for sure.
