Hi folks,

I'm a newbie to the gnu-win32 stuff.
I've gnu-win32 b18 installed, and I just installed the man-14h binaries 
from David Coe as well as groff 1.10 and less 3.21 binaries (from Mark 
Nudel) on my PC running Win95.

But... if I run a simple 'man man', I got :

Error executing formatting or display command.
System command (cd /usr/man ; /usr/bin/tbl /usr/man/man1/man.1 |
/usr/bin/troff -mandoc -Tascii | /usr/bin/grotty -B | /usr/local/bin/less
-isc) exited with status 32512.
No manual entry for man

C:\gnuwin32\b18\H-i386-cygwin32 is mounted as /usr

After a few tries, it appears that if I type 'cat /usr/man/man1/man.1' 
from my home directory (/home) it works, and 'less /usr/man/man1/man.1' 
gives 'No such file or directory' ....
Is it a known problem with 'less' ?

Any ideas/help will be welcome !   Thanks

Jerome
