I'm wondering whether this might be related to this old problem. http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2006-11/msg00734.html I was having man pages where bold was not turn off properly. If I remember correctly, this suggestion fixed it for me. http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2006-11/msg00552.html May it would fix one or both problems.
Oddly enough, it seems to. In fact, just adding the '-c' option to NROFF in man.conf, without having to remove '-Tlatin' or add the '2> /dev/null' (which I'm not sure would work under tcsh anyway). That is, man stops bolding too many things, and it turns off properly when I exit. So why do I have to 'revert to the old behaviour of grotty', which is what the nroff -c seems to be doing, before man will bold things properly? -- --Alfvaen (Web page: http://www.telusplanet.net/public/alfvaen/ ) Current Album--Eight Seconds:Almacantar Current Book--John Wyndham:The Midwich Cuckoos I swear by the shelters of the stars(a mighty oath, if you but knew it)... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
