Does anyone know way to passthru man pages so they don't show the ascii formating?
You could:
1) Replace all newlines (ASCII 10) with a <br> tag. htmlspecialchars()
will do this for you.
2) Use a <pre> tag within which newlines are preserved
3) Use preg_replace to replace non-printable characters (Can't remember
how exactly, but everything you need is in the manual - you will want
to strip everything from ASCII 1 - ASCII 32. IIRC.
