That's the difference between how browsers interpret "newlines" (they ignore them) and ordinary text output... I don't see where your program distinguishes console from browser output... But on the browser output, you would append "</br>" when you want the newline... so

print "$line</br>"; if you see what I mean..... Probably you end up doing both i.e., print "$line</br>\n"; That's because you might want to edit the browser source some time and without the \n in there, your text editor will probably not look right...

You might have to escape the brackets, I don't remember.... that is \</br\>. You'll just have to play around...

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.

SEE ALSO

       man(1), man2html(1), arena(1), lynx(1), sensible-browser(1), netscape(1), xmosaic(1), glimpse(1)
