Hi Tomas,

for me `find-man' is "good" is `man' is "bad", because of these
reasons,

  2) calls to them can be "refined" with a pos-spec (this will
     be discussed below),

  3) they open the new buffer in the current window (to make it
     easier to "go back" after following them - see the next
     section),

  4) they don't display much output in the echo area,

that are from this bigger list here:

  (find-eval-intro "4. Elisp hyperlinks")
  http://angg.twu.net/eev-intros/find-eval-intro.html#4

This is an example of a find-man with a refinement/pos-spec:

  (find-man "1 find" "\nEXAMPLES\n")
