BTW, our gnu man is out of date. FreeBSD use version 1.1, current version is 1.4f (or higher). >From the README: ====================================================================== For man-1.4: Corrected some misprints in man.1. Now also search for manpages *.man. Added use of message catalogs. (Just as an exercise.) man-1.4c: Added fixes by gentzel@2.340.ENET.dec.com, Pauline Middelink and others. Added suid handling. Added TIOCGWINSZ. man-1.4d: Added Polish man pages (Rafal Maszkowski, rzm@oso.chalmers.se). Added -W option (Marty Leisner, leisner@sdsp.mc.xerox.com). man-1.4e: Added French man pages (Rene COUGNENC, rene@renux.frmug.fr.net), MANWIDTH, MANPAGER, -K option. Fixed grep problem. ====================================================================== For man-1.3: Changed MANPATH handling, added locale, added 1.2 changes (unaware of the existence of 1.2), bugfixes. Now merged both versions. Andries E. Brouwer - aeb@cwi.nl ======================================================================= For man-1.2: I seem to have taken over man for the moment. I added support for run- time determination of compressors and expanders, plus a couple of bug fixes. Zeyd M. Ben-Halim zmbenhal@netcom.com ======================================================================
