Description Xin LI freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2015-09-14 21:32:58 UTC 
Color manual pages are not rendered correctly (e.g. highlighted text are rendered as characters repeating twice, etc.).

For instance:

https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=grotty&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+10.2-RELEASE&arch=default&format=html

Over to maintainer.
Comment 2 Wolfram Schneider freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2017-09-14 11:22:35 UTC 
I can confirm that man.cgi cannot handle "bold underline" correctly. I will see if I can fix this.
