Is there a way to pipe text from man to a text file where text in bold doesn't appear as double letters when read with textedit.app
Example:
[Cube:~] msents% man ls > ls.txt
[Cube:~] msents% open ls.txt
[Cube:~] msents%
<TextEdit.app opens ls.txt>
LS(1) System General Commands Manual LS(1)
NNAAMMEE
llss - list directory contents

..snip...
But check this out: when I cat it on console it looks fine:
[Cube:~] msents% cat ls.txt
LS(1) System General Commands Manual LS(1)
NAME
ls - list directory contents
SYNOPSIS

Any comments?
