Hi,
When I updated cygwin yesterday, everything works except for the formatting of
manual pages. When I do
$ man man
I get output that looks like (starting with the third line):
ESC[1mNAMEESC[0m
...
ESC[1mSYNOPSISESC[0m
and in general has lots of these ESC codes.
I don't think I'm using any non-defaults related to this problem. I
haven't edited /etc/man.conf. I don't have MANPAGER defined in the
environment, and I get the same output with
$ man -P "/usr/bin/less -is" man
However, if I do
$ man -P cat man
I get output without all of the ESC sequences, althougth it has a lot
of extra bold (white) stuff.
I have another cygwin computer with the same cygwin configuration I
didn't update, and it does fine with displaying manual pages.
The configuration of the computer with this problem is as follows.
(Output of cygcheck -s -v 0r)
