On Leopard:

$ man X
No manual entry for X

There is nothing for Xquartz either. The xterm man page mentions X(1), but there is nothing in man1, and man7 where these things used to be is completely absent.

Please file a bug.

This is fixed, btw... well, kinda... Leopard's man pages are in /usr/ X11/man. xserver installs man pages in ${prefix}/share/man which is /usr/X11/share/man. Xquartz.man is installed in there...


Ben, why are the shipped man pages in /usr/X11/man instead of /usr/ X11/share/man?


There was a bug filed several months ago that pointed out that most (but not all) of the man pages installed by X.org were ending up in / usr/X11/share/man, which did not match the location of the X11 man pages on Tiger (/usr/X11/man). I went through and fixed that, but I must have missed them in the server. Please File A Bug. :)
