You are not even saying which command you are running, right? Try running either of the following instead: $ mandoc `man -w saslauthd` | less $ groff -P-c -man -Tascii `man -w saslauthd` | less $ groff -man -Tascii `man -w saslauthd` | less -R All three will look much better. Sometimes, it also helps to say which architecture and which operating system version you are running on. In this case, though, you are lucky, what you are talking about is pretty much independent of that. Yours, Ingo
