kleines Filmröllchen 9e471353dd Meta: Convert new help page link styles for the man page website
The special URL links (help://man) and the application opening links now
work on the man page website. While the page links are translated
correctly, the application launch can't be implemented. For this reason,
an explanatory error page is shown instead.

About

SerenityOS is a love letter to '90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core. It flatters with sincerity by stealing beautiful ideas from various other systems.

Roughly speaking, the goal is a marriage between the aesthetic of late-1990s productivity software and the power-user accessibility of late-2000s *nix. This is a system by us, for us, based on the things we like.

You can watch videos of the system being developed on YouTube:
