is there any way i can step thru the man process, entering each command
1-by-1, to make sure that works?  i can't run "ps" fast enough to catch
all the things man does!

i don't know.  if "mc" can do it ...  i can't believe no one else has
this problem!  i have 16M RAM, @ 100mhz ...  no tweaks, just the basic
default installation ...  i should be able to man a manpage!
just an IDE and com and lpt port ...

i'm going to turn off my ps2 mouse - maybe that's it!  hehe!  (2.2.1)

i did re-install my manpages, even redownloaded them, but the problem
has to be in the bin dist ...  all my perms are fine with man and
it's directories ...
