I have no problem finding the man pages in my MANPATH, but the pages

This can be fixed by adding the following line to your .(t)cshrc
"setenv GROFF_TYPESETTER latin1"
Thanks! That worked just fine. I added it to my
~/.MacOSX/envronment.plist
But can you post your MANPATH settings? Maybe adding your line helps
solvin my problem and adding my line helps solving yours.
Nothing fancy. Although I do use the korn shell (from at&t).
Here is my complete environment.

export ENV=${FILE[(_$-=0)+(_=1)-_${-%%*i*}]}

Sorry if this has been discussed before. But until we are given the
capability to search the archives, we are doomed to repeat history.
Oh yeah and nobody has an overview.
