Documentation

The documentation for XV is now distributed *only* as a PostScript file, as it has gotten considerably larger, and is no longer very well suited to the 'man' page format. Print a copy of the (100-ish page) manual found in '/pub/doku/ps/xvdocs.ps'. You can display it with ghostview program. Manual available.
