How wonderful to discover a product that does exactly what it says it does. No jumping through hoops to make it work! No time for the hoops. It's a useful utility. It's simple & to the point.

Too bad that grikdog1 didn't stop to read the system requirements.

Thanks!!

Presents a list of utilities in /usr/bin, and a Make PDF button. Selecting e.g. "bridget" and "Make PDF" then presents an empty window with a long encoded title of some kind. No man page whatever. Possibly does not work with Panther (10.3.9), did not test 10.4. As an alternative you might try using man cmd-name | aless which works very well, and does not generate long PDF copies of simple groff formatted text files.
