Patch committed. Now all the minus signs in man page should be \-

Just a question, how could I reproduce the problem of minus-sign to hyphen
problem in UTF-8 locale? I set "export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8" in a terminal and
then "make install && man lket-b2a" and everything including copy&paste looks
ok. I am using Fedora Core 6 & RHEL4 U4
