I'm looking for a filter, utility, or editor that
will take normal, what-you-see-is-what-you get
text, and convert it into a unix man page with
minimal hassle.

I realize that some of the major sections and headings
would have to be delimeted in some way, but I'd like to
be able to do this editing with a normal text editor
(or framemaker or MacIntosh Word) in as minimally
cryptic way as possible.
