Same syntax and semantics as for

.Sx ASCII Output .

This is implemented by passing a

.Ic file://

URI ending in a fragment identifier to the pager

rather than passing merely a file name.

When using this argument, use a pager supporting such URIs, for example

.Bd -literal -offset 3n

MANPAGER='lynx -force_html' man -T html -O tag=MANPAGER man

MANPAGER='w3m -T text/html' man -T html -O tag=toc mandoc

Consequently, for HTML output, this argument does not work with

.Xr more 1

.Xr less 1 .

For example,

.Ql MANPAGER=less man -T html -O tag=toc mandoc

does not work because

.Xr less 1

does not support

.Ic file://

URIs.

print a table of contents near the beginning of the output.
