I hacked the /usr/bin/man script on SCO Xenix (2.2.1) to use "find" starting
at /usr/man to locate files, instead of the unusual way it does it by
default, which is to let the shell expand a particular set of paths with
wildcards...
I would post diffs or the new man program I use except that I think I would
be in violation of the SCO copyright if I did that. Any thoughts on whether
or not this is true? ANY COMMENTS, SCO?
