improve description in manpage

Do you have a suugestion for improving the manpage? If so, I would
consider it. Otherwise this bug will be marked invalid.

The obvious things are the missing "that", the missing "an", and the
missing fullstop. But then there's more space for improvement. The
description doesn't mention at all the program's purpose. I would
start with "chm2pdf converts CHM documents to PDF." Then you can say
what special features it has (password protection of the generated PDF
file, etc.). And maybe say what batch conversion means, I really
don't know (is it just the fact that you can call it with more than
one filename?). And I also have no clue what that Explorer-like
interface is or how to enable it. The manpage doesn't mention it
anywhere else.

Also, there are many markup errors (look for single quotes) and even
the single line description is missing a word.

This bug was fixed in the package chm2pdf - 0.9.1-0ubuntu2

Now you've changed the description from

  chm2pdf is a package supports batch conversion, command line,
  PDF security options, password protection and compression modes. The program
  has Explorer-like interface

to

  chm2pdf is a package supports batch conversion, command line,
  PDF security options, password protection and compression modes.

Why do you ignore almost all of what I said in my previous mail?
