Remove out of date example code in woman.el |

woman.el contains the following bit of documentation:
;; The following is based on suggestions by Guy Gascoigne-Piggford and
;; Juanma Barranquero. If you really want to square the man-woman
;; circle then you might care to define the following bash function in
;; .bashrc:
;; man() { gnudoit -q '(raise-frame (selected-frame)) (woman' \"$1\" ')' ; }
;; If you use Microsoft COMMAND.COM then you can create a file called
;; man.bat somewhere in your path containing the two lines:
;; @echo off
;; gnudoit -q (raise-frame (selected-frame)) (woman \"%1\")
;; and then (e.g. from a command prompt or the Run... option in the
;; Start menu) just execute
;; man man_page_name
This is cute, but gnudoit no longer exists, and this code is far from
complete (see the recent discussion on making Emacs a replacement for
standalone info on gnu-prog-discuss). I suggest simply removing the
above from woman.el.
