For example: man ipf, it runs normal..... ipf(8) Name .......................... SYNOPSIS ........................ ........................ <space bar for next page> ........................ BUGS ........................ and then it jump to the first ipf man page again, then space bar until last page, it quit to the shell. So why ? Thanks !

Does it show the manual once and once you close that it shows it again? Or does it split it horizontally/vertically on your screen? Or does it run, one after the other, so that you have the "See also" and similar right before a new manual page at the bottom? Or something else that I have not described?
