Hello,

I write you because I think Firefox should allow to read info or man pages like in Konqueror


striking man:man or info:make in the url box
will show an HTML formatted page with color, ...


Maybe that's a stuff for an addon / plugin developper

It should works on Linux and Mac OS X

On Windows it will works if Cygwin (or any *nix for Win) is installed

Regards
