>>so I have plan9 manpages at my linux box. Reboot always you need some
>>help is not very nice. At least I should copy them to dos partition and

there are several packages for Plan 9 out on the net that make
a user-level file server that will allow you to read, or even read and write,
a Linux ext2fs partition.  that might make things a little easier for you.

Plan 9's man is just an rc script; it's a close relative of the example
in the tom duff's rc paper.
