Hi Justin,

thanks for your suggestion:

Looks funny! However, the "--" is not supported here:

g.html2man 
sh: -- #perl, to stop looping: unrecognized option
Usage:  sh [GNU long option] [option] ...
        sh [GNU long option] [option] script-file ...

And also not the -S:

export GRASS_PERL=/usr/bin/perl
g.html2man 
/bin/sh: -S: unrecognized option

Shall I simply remove these flags?

Markus
