(2) How can I get man to look in /usr/local/man? I tried setting MANPATH but that didn't seem to work. (3) How can I change the default geometry and position of the icon box and the DECterm window? using .Xdefaults? (4) Does anyone have the appropriate machine include file for Austin KCL? I got the tar files, unpacked them, and and tried a make using the VAX include file, which didn't work. Better yet, does anyone have the binaries that I could just ftp? What about the binaries for CLOS on AKCL? (5) How can I adjust my DS3100's precision time piece (i.e., clock)? (6) Since I don't have Adobe's transcript software, and I do have a postscript driver that ignores the #! of files already in postscript, what alternatives do I have for making lpr do the right thing regardless of whether the file is postscript or plain text? I currently have two "printers" in my printcap, one for postscript and the other for non-postscript files. My current solution is a shell script that looks at the file and invokes lpr with the appropriate -P switch. Is there a more elegant solution? Thanks for any help, John (jwb@lindenthal.cae.ri.cmu.edu)
