On lftp 4.8.0 installed via homebrew on OSX 10.11.6, I get a bunch of errors trying to load the manpage and I think it prevents some information from being displayed. The errors look like this:
/usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:171: unrecognised format `<' /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:171: giving up on this table /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:190: `p' modifier must be followed by number /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:190: unrecognised format `h' /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:190: giving up on this table /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:220: unrecognised format `h' /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:220: giving up on this table /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:243: unrecognised format `\' /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:243: giving up on this table /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:303: unrecognised format `\' /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:303: giving up on this table /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:323: unrecognised format `\' /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:323: giving up on this table /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:364: unrecognised format `\' /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:364: giving up on this table /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:398: unrecognised format `\' /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:398: giving up on this table /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:427: unrecognised format `\' /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:427: giving up on this table /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:454: unrecognised format `\' /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:454: giving up on this table /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:484: unrecognised format `\' /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:484: giving up on this table /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:545: unrecognised format `\' /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:545: giving up on this table /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:571: unrecognised format `\' /usr/bin/tbl:<standard input>:571: giving up on this table Looking at the source of lftp.1, the errors don't seem to match up to the text. I don't understand the manpage format but I suspect OSX is using a crappy, old tbl, like it does with other tools. `tbl -v` shows "GNU tbl (groff) version 1.19.2". I'm not sure if this is something you're interesting in fixing but it would be nice to have the full manpage on osx.
