I was using -m instead of -M and got the old manpages. It wasn't until I copied /usr/local/man/man1/groff.1.gz to my home directory, gunzipped it and looked at it that I realized my mistake. The manpage installed with pkg _is_ the correct one and the correct command to get it is: "man -M /usr/local/man groff" (or one can set this directory ahead of /usr/share/man on MANPATH) On Sun, Nov 23, 2014 at 8:30 PM, Chet Creider wrote: > I am a newbie on freebsd.
