Hello,

For some reason I can't figure out, whenever I try and view man pages, I see 
the escape codes for formatting markup instead of the actual formatting.

For example:  when I type "man cygwin", I see this:

INTRO(3)                            Cygwin                            
INTRO(3)

       ESC[1mintro ESC[22m- Introduction to the Cygwin API

ESC[1mDESCRIPTIONESC[0m
       ESC[1mCygwin    ESC[22mis    a    Linux-like    environment    for    
Windows


I don't know why this is happening nor can I figure out how to fix it.  I 
see colors properly in shell text everywhere else I'm supposed to; i.e. 
directory listings and other console application output.


If anyone has any ideas or suggestions for fixing this, I'd appreciate it!  
Attached is the output from cygcheck.


Thanks,

Joe
