"RTFM" is probably one of the things that you are going to hear when you ask a Linux geek anything. And it is true that "man" is a great tool. Reading man pages can be a little daunting from time to time, and if you aren't colorblind, then there is a useful tool called "most" that can colorize output text. On an Ubuntu system, type:

sudo apt-get install most

This will install the package, but the configuration doesn't stop there. Now we need to make "most" the default reader. Type this:

sudo update-alternatives --config pager

This will show you a list of pagers, just select the number corresponding to "most". Now fire up a man page and voilà! The output should be a little more readable.
