Oooops. I think this got messed up in the ncoast->uunet move. I had
asked Brandon to sit on this a bit ... but it snuck out. This program
won't handle preformatted SysV manual pages correctly. It wants, for
example, the preformatted "ls" manual page to be in:
/usr/man/u_man/cat1/ls.1
rather than
/usr/man/catman/u_man/man1/ls.1
However if you are running SCO XENIX, I recommend that you take a look
at this. It allows you to use the distributed manual pages as is, but
organize your local manual pages in a more reasonable way.
Right now the SysV compatibility fix is a couple of items down in the
to-do queue. If there is interest in an SysV-compatible version, I'd be
glad to issue an update in the not-too-distant future.
