On X11 0.2 on Mac OS X 10.2.4 when I try and run xman from my xterm, apart from the first help page all the rest of the manual pages that are generated seem to be raw postscript.

All of the manual pages selected from the sections menu of xman start with %!PS-Adobe 3.0

Why is this and how do I fix it so that xman will format a manual page that I can actually read??

Asam...


ok, I guess someone is going to tell me again that I need to have the Apple Developer Tools installed but as an average Mac user, why?


At least for the next beta release it should say in the first splash page of the X11 for Mac OS X Installer "You need to have Apple Developer Tools Installed for full operation".

I guess the real question is why would Apple not install binutils and such from the the developer tools by default? (I don't mean with X11, I mean with all OS X systems.) Does it really take up that much space, or do they think in some way having it as a separate install will reduce maintenance costs?
