Hi

Man command is not working on my cygwin. When I type simple man command
without parmaters it prompts "What manual page do you want?". But when i
give a parameter it says.

$ man ls
sh: /usr/bin/tbl: No such file or directory
sh: /usr/bin/less: No such file or directory
Error executing formatting or display command.
System command (cd "/usr/share/man" && (echo ".ll 15.9i"; echo ".nr LL
15.9i"; echo ".pl 1100i"; /usr/bin/gunzip -c '/usr/share/man/man1/ls.1.gz';
echo ".\\\""; echo ".pl \n(nlu
+10") | /usr/bin/tbl | /usr/bin/nroff -c -mandoc 2>/dev/null | /usr/bin/less
-isrR) exited with status 32512.
No manual entry for ls


Any idea why this error is occuring and how to fix it.

Thanks,
Ashish
