I wonder if the problem is because man is splitting the command line itself rather than letting a shell do it. That's not a bug though... In any case,it seems to me the best solution is to create a scrupt in /usr/local/bin called vipager and set your pager variable to that... -- Martijn van Oosterhout <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://svana.org/kleptog/
