To my surprise, man on my :new (to me) DS3100 (Ultrix 4.0) doesn't understand these. Thanks! I tried this a week ago, but my follow-upper was busted. I posted a deluxe version of man in perl a few days ago to alt.sources and comp.lang.perl; if you don't get these groups, mail me. I believe it has all the features of all other man program, plus a whole bunch more. Check it out. --tom -- "Hey, did you hear Stallman has replaced /vmunix with /vmunix.el?
