hallo,

manual pages displayed with g.manual do have wrong encoding, which does
not need to fit system encoding settings.

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

people, who are using iso-8859-2 or utf-8 will get unsuable character
encoding:

should be
http://les-ejk.cz/tmp/Obrazovka-3.png

because of the manual pages are generated while system compilation, I
would suggest:
    
    - generate english version of manual pages by default
    or
    - the script for manpage generation should set propper header based
      on system encoding

what do you thing?
