ROX has patch for bash which let's the shell find appdirs.

man and info belong to the commandline. Applications come with HTML or  
SGML documentation. And if they don't (which speaks grossly against the  
developer), they can be easily converted. A non-issue. Scrollkeeper is  
evil btw. If you really feel the need to index the documentation of  
your applications, swish++ or the like are much better than this  
single-point-of-failure install-time madness.
