This option can assign a tool to view manual pages when 'help'
subcommand was invoked. Supported tools are 'man', 'woman'
(with emacs client), and 'konqueror'. Default is 'man'.

It seems one can also add new man viewer tool using 'man.<tool>.cmd'
or use different path using 'man.<tool>.path' config option.
