Hi...this is a very dumb question but I am at a loss. man $whatver returns: No manual entry for $whatever Obviously the man pages are sitting in /usr/share/man* And equally obviously they are gzipped. I can tap on them in midc and read them. How do I get man to read them? Am I missing some arcane arg? Can't find any reference to this in the Handbook or Greg's book.
