Re: gnome yelp and man pages
Hi Joe, Thanks for the message. I've been running X from startx, so I gues that's why I don't have an ~/.xsession-errors. But, taking a cue from your message, I tried running yelp from the commandline (to see errors if there were any, and lo' and behold it works -- except for, and this was probably the real problem anyway, pages added from ports, i.e. in /usr/local. Is there an easy way to teach yelp about /usr/local and other unusual places, if that, indeed is the problem? /Paul Joe Marcus Clarke wrote: On Thu, 2003-02-13 at 10:10, Paul A.
