Puppy Linux uses http://linux.die.net/man/ for its man pages. It
actually launches a browser window at the right page when using man in
a terminal. Gentoo users, if you're REALLY short on space, you can use
the "noman" feature in make.conf to stop Portage installing man pages.
That's my useless fact for the day. :)
