man pages & SCO Xenix

SCO Xenix 2.2.X with the updated Text processing system has man pages
for the usual commands. I am trying to add smail, pathalias etc to
the pages on file. The manual says that "man" formatted document is
to go in /usr/man/man.LOCAL and the "catable" document is to go in
/usr/man/cat.LOCAL. The problem is that either these directories are
not getting searched (LOCAL is included in /etc/default/man) or that
the extension for the files is not correct. If I add the files to
/usr/man/cat.C with the extension ".C" the pages are then available.

What if anything am I doing wrong ???? Is this a problem with the
Text Development System ? This is driving me crazy ( admittably
a very short trip! )

Thanks in Advance
