+ latex2man
+ =========
+
+Latex2man is a tool to translate UNIX manual pages written with LaTeX into
+the troff format understood by the UNIX man(1)-command.
+Alternatively HTML, TexInfo, or LaTeX code can be produced too.
+Output of parts of the text may be supressed using the conditional text
+feature (for this, LaTeX generation may be used).
+
+There is LaTeX package (latex2man.sty) used for writing the Man-page
+and a PERL script (latex2man) doing the actual translation.
+
+Requirements:
+ - Latex2man requires Perl version >= 5.0004_03.
+ - LaTeX2e
+
+VERSION: 1.23
