Hi, I encounter a problem when viewing manuals via man(1) command. The case is simple, when I try to search something, I press =A1=AE/=A1=AF,= and then input the pattern, If it got something in the page, it will = direct me into the specified place, and then, I continue with =A1=AFn=A1=AF= , and it goes well. But the problem is, after a sequence of =A1=AFn=A1=AF, the screen go to = the end of the manual pages, and keeping press =A1=AFn=A1=AF, I got = annoying =A1=B0...skipping...=A1=B1, the page is full of skipping and = parts of the end of the manual page. Is this a bug of man(1) or just a feature? by=
