Xmanview 1.0 is considered as a flexible and effective tool which uses rma, designed to allow you to convert man pages into HTML with hyperlinking. Apropos style output can be generated by prepending the man page request with '-k'. Actually, anything you type into the request field will be passed to the underlying man command as arguments.
Application use: Simply type the name of the man page you want to view into the field and press enter/return. The application will generate and display the man page via the 'man' program and rman (or a perl filter for apropos output).
Once output has been displayed, click on any of the blue hyperlinks to go to traverse between the table of contents and sections in the man page. In apropos output, click any of the links to view the man page. See also references are also hyperlinks and will take you to the appropriate man page.
The combo box at the top of the window also provides a history of the last 15 requests. Pull down and select any request to go to that page.
As man page generation is relatively quick, no attempt is made to cache results. This has the added advantage of ensuring that displayed man pages are always up to date with whatever is installed on the system.
Any additional flags to man can simply be typed into the field. I.e. to generate an apropos listing for "open", simply type.
-k open
.... into the field. Likewise, you can generate output containing all of the different open man pages by....
-a open
Command Line Access
Included with the application is a command line utility called xmv. xmv is used exactly like man. As such, requesting the man page for 'ls' is as simple as typing...
xmv ls
.... and grabbing the apropos output for directory can be done via...
xmv -k directory
It is recommended that you install in /usr/local/bin/. Alternatively, create a bin directory in your home directory and stick xmv in that directory. (If you do this from a shell, use the 'rehash' command to cause the shell to update its table of the commands available and their location).
Requirements: Mac OS X 10.0 or higher

Annette 1.0
Annette is a network tool more>>
Annette is a network tool. Handy when youre a web developer or network guy and youve got those pesky issues that you need your buddies for. Buddies like ping, netstat, nslookup, and traceroute. Now you can use em without resorting to that terminal, or having to read the man pages (again) because you forgot the command syntax.
Sounds handy... whats it cost?
Annette is free, as is the source code. You can download both with the links at left. If this puts you off, and you insist on paying for such a useful utility, you can register Annette for $5 and give me your email address - Ill send you a note when Annette is updated.
As freeware, Annette is distributed as-is and comes with no support. Sorry!
About the source code.
I put Annette together during Apples WWDC 2000, using my iBook and DP4 (this was back in the day). I gave it a quick update to make it something I would post to the web, but I havent spent much time making the source pretty. It is commented OK, but is not an excellent example of design by any means - its a hack from a conference. I would only recommend it to someone who wants examples of how to use NSTask.
