[tor-commits] [nyx/master] Cache manual when read from 'man tor'



commit 46cead2bc4439e227d65c410b461769c36948f4d

    Cache manual when read from 'man tor'
    
    When available we run 'man tor' to get manual information about the user's
    specific version. This is a neat trick, but it takes over twice as long as
    reading our pre-parsed manual information.
    
    After parsing a manual caching the result to disk so running nyx in the future
    is a lot quicker.
