This should be the existing behaviour: $ PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin manpath /usr/share/man:/usr/local/man:/usr/local/share/man:/usr/man $ PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin manpath /usr/local/man:/usr/local/share/man:/usr/share/man:/usr/man Is this not what you're seeing? If so, could you provide more detail (e.g. debugging output)? Thanks, -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
