Done for the future man-db 2.5.4: Fri Dec 5 13:52:14 GMT 2008 Colin Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Make it possible to override man's default of discarding stderr when stdout is a terminal (Debian bug #480996). * src/man.c (discard_stderr): Make static. (maybe_discard_stderr): New function, checking MAN_KEEP_STDERR. (format_display_and_save, format_display, display_catman): Use maybe_discard_stderr. * man/man1/man.man1 (ENVIRONMENT): Document this. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
