The first thing that worried me is this sort of thing:

I use a similar type of substitution in a monitoring script:
Code:

lynx="/opt/lynx/bin/lynx"
site="www.company.com"

${lynx} -dump ${site} >/dev/null 2>&1
case $? in

It makes it easier for me to change, and makes the commands themselves easier to read for me...

hman

hman(1)                                                       General Commands Manual                                                      hman(1)

NAME

       hman - browse the on-line manual pages

SYNOPSIS

       hman [ -P browser ] [ -H host ] [ section ] name
       hman [ -P browser ] [ -H host ] [ section ] [ index ]

DESCRIPTION

       The  hman  script is an interface to man2html(1) that allows you to enter man page requests at the command line and view the output in your
       favourite browser.  The behaviour reminds of that of man(1) so that many people will be able to alias hman to man.  If the browser used  is
       netscape, and an incarnation of netscape is running already, hman will pass the request to the existing browser.

OPTIONS

       -P  browser
              Specify  which  browser  (like  lynx, xmosaic, arena, chimera, netscape, amaya, ...) to use.  This option overrides the MANHTMLPAGER
              environment variable.  The default is the non-httpd version of lynx, or sensible-browser if lynx cannot be found.

       -H  host
              Specify from what host to get the man pages.  This option overrides the MANHTMLHOST environment variable.  The default is localhost.

ENVIRONMENT

       MANHTMLPAGER
              The default browser to use is selected using this environment variable.

       MANHTMLHOST
              The default host to use is selected using this environment variable.
