Sure ... > But I fully agree to Manual. This is the usual way to check the manual > page (at least I always use this): > LANG=C MANWIDTH=80 man --warning -l <file> This LANG=C was the old way :-) See recent bug report on lintian http://bugs.debian.org/575661 and package uploaded as 2.4.2 on 27 Jun 2010. Please use UTF-8 locale to get it right. LANG=en_US.UTF-8 MANWIDTH=80 man --warnings -E UTF-8 -l <file> This avoids bogus warning as I understand :-) Anyway, now I see what to ask for fixing configuration of "mc" to look into a manpage file directly by fixing /etc/mc/mc.ext: regex/(([^0-9]|^[^\.]*)\.([1-9][A-Za-z]*|[ln])|\.man)$ Open=case %d/%f in */log/*|*/logs/*) cat %f ;; *) { zsoelim %f 2>/dev/null || cat %f; } | nroff -c -Tlatin1 -mandoc ;; esac | %var{PAGER:more} View=%view{ascii,nroff} case %d/%f in */log/*|*/logs/*) cat %f ;; *) { zsoelim %f 2>/dev/null || cat %f; } | nroff -c -Tlatin1 -mandoc ;; esac But changing from "nroff -c -Tlatin1 -mandoc" to "man -l -" creates page with proper table but without color etc. ... any idea to fix this?
