mdocml consists of the libmandoc validating compiler and mandoc, which interfaces with the compiler library to format output for UNIX terminals (with
support for wide-character locales), XHTML, HTML, PostScript, and PDF.
- It also includes preconv, for recoding multibyte manuals;
- demandoc, for emitting only text parts of manuals;
- mandocdb, for indexing manuals; and
- apropos, whatis, and
- man.cgi (via catman) for semantic search of manual content.

- mdocml is in plain-old ANSI C and should build and run on any modern system; however, you'll
- need libdb to build apropos, whatis, man.cgi, catman, and mandocdb (this is installed by default on BSD UNIX
- systems — see the Makefile if you're running Linux). To build and install into /usr/local/, just
- run make install. Be careful: the preconv, apropos, and whatis binary names are
- usually taken by existing utilities.
