Hi

Just looked at the man pages from a mobile device (HTC desire) noticed that
the text sizes are quite small and hard to read. Would it be possible to
increase the text-size to 12pt?

It's also pretty small on Firefox on my ubuntu netbook (default install,
Firefox 7.01)

I was looking at these two pages:

http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/online/dir_all_alphabetic.html

http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/online/pages/man3/realpath.3.html

The heading particularly small:

"NAME | SYNOPSIS | DESCRIPTION | RETURN VALUE | ERRORS | VERSIONS |
CONFORMING TO | NOTES | BUGS | SEE ALSO | COLOPHON  The Linux Programming
Interface"

I've made a few tweaks that should improve things a little. The
changes should appear with the next website update. Check back at the
end of the week.

That overall looks much better. There is one last element that is repeated small, the "top" links at font size -2.

<font size="-2">top</font>

Could that -2  be removed?

BTW, could I ask, do you publish your scripts which generate these online man pages? It looks very good.

Best regards, Jon
