Hi all,
Marko was recently seeking access to the PCP man pages online. We
used to have this (we just rendered 'em via man2html, no searching
or even cross-linking), but it wasn't a good setup and maintaining
it was a bit too much effort - so it was dropped a few years back.
I came across man7.org recently and happily Michael Kerrisk has now
offered to help us out. I'll add a link on pcp.io once this is all
setup - but if any man page issues crop up in the next week (while
I am away), please respond promptly to Michael with fixes.
Thanks!

Looks like a good match. Sure, I'll include those. It will probably be
a few weeks before the pages appear though (next site refresh).

The details above are perfect. Thanks for making the job easy.
Cheers,
