Mimic OSX behaviour:
...
On OS X it is possible to specify the manpage filename
with a full or relative path like this:
man ./foo.5
or
man /cd/foo/bar.1.gz
This is really helpful to view the manpage quickly while editing it.

fix -m handling, so that e.g. "man -m . 3 printf" works as it should
add new -S flag, to specify a string the result path has to contain
