The cool thing about Unix (Unix like) systems is the man command. Type it and any command and you get a ton of info on it.

You'd think someone would have figured out hot-linking over the decades the man(1) command has been around. They've got full-screen paging man programs, xman programs, and on-and-on, and not one of them that I ever saw allowed you to put the cursor on a man page that was being referenced and have it go to that page.

The man-to-html packages do this (somewhat), but it's not like it wasn't an easily-done thing prior to the advent of html. I mean, geez... it's just another markup language, fer peetsake!

I mean, hey... the VM/CMS HELP package did it!  Cool
