Man Handler 2.0 - Man Pages With Style
Unix, in all its flavors, is a beautiful thing. It's so darned versatile. But there's a lot to learn if you want to use it well, and viewing man pages in Terminal is...well..not a beautiful thing.
Enter Man Handler. Now you can view man pages with a nice, simple Mac user interface without a lot of hassle. Just enter the term you are curious about, hit the "Get page" button and there it is. And with the built-in services of OS X, you can make the text a sticky note, have your Mac read it aloud, email to someone, and a lot more.
Man Handler puts a familiar Mac face on unix man pages, giving you the complete text of the manual page in a window, where you can scroll, select portions, and use any of the Mac OS X services.
Even better, you can save those man page entries for later viewing without having to do another search. And the source code is included so you can take a crack at writing your own document-based AppleScript Studio application.
