manual page formatting issues
Hi, I'm running FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE (running on VMWare Server 2.0.2) and am having some odd issues the formatting of man pages. If I view a man page (as root) in the console it displays correctly. If I view the man page (again, as root) in a (PuTTY) terminal session, the bold formatting of the command line arguments is missing. See the following screen shot examples: Console: http://imageupload.org/?di=612968791464 Terminal: http://imageupload.org/?di=112968791464 In the console session I have the TERM=cons25.
