+choice for BSD manual pages, and man, the predominant historical language for
+UNIX manuals.  It is small and quite fast.  The main component of the toolset
+is the @command{mandoc} utility program, based on the libmandoc validating
+compiler, to format output for UTF-8 and ASCII UNIX terminals, HTML 5,
+PostScript, and PDF.  Additional tools include the @command{man} viewer, and
+@command{apropos} and @command{whatis}.")
