Thanks for the hint. I have overlooked that after installing ports/textproc/groff, its man page is in $ man -M/usr/local/man/ groff Now, with preconv(1), which translates UTF-8 to `\[uXXXX]' it works; still have to check how to let grops(1) generate correct Postscript to use the FreeFonts... Btw: I have an older 9-CURRENT (r214444, from end of Octubre) and its ports does not have ports/textproc/groff; I was 1st thinking in some mistake of me on CVS checkout, but when one looks into the ports page: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/textproc/groff/ it says that the port was added 6 months ago... what does this mean? Wasn't there any groff before in the ports? I don't have any other (older) FreeBSD 8.x handy to check this. I nearly can't believe this. matthias -- Matthias Apitz t +49-89-61308 351 - f +49-89-61308 399 - m +49-170-4527211 e <guru@unixarea.de> - w http://www.unixarea.de/
