Konqueror will display the local man pages when you enter "man:rtfm" in
the location bar (provided you have funny-manpages installed).

[You didn't tell which browser you are using, I don't think that feature
is available for iceweasel]

I use proper Firefox (3.5b4) instead of iceweasel, but when I enter
"man:whatever" it opens up gnome-help with the appropriate man page.
man:startx works, but man:rtfm doesn't. I can get to rtfm in gnome-help,
so maybe I just have to restart Firefox or something?


There's a FF add-on to do this:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/9619

Thanks, I'll take a look. Is anyone using it with FF 3.5?
