I already installed the less and less works well. My OS is Windows98(Japanese version). Under DOS prompt, I ran `man less', the computer gave a beep and the cursor jumped several lines but displayed nothing and hang-up and I ran `man gcc' tne following message was given `Reformatting page. Wait ...c:/djgpp/bin/man.exe: c:/djgpp/bin/less.exeorgroff.exe -man -Tascii: No such file or directory(ENOENT)' And under DOS mode, the result was same. I also tried to run man.exe using the editor EMACS for Windows 2.03.10.1, I ran it by M-x man RET gcc RET, the emacs say, at the minibuffer, error in process sentinel: *man gcc*: process exited abnormally with code 2, and at the window it is writed that c:/djgpp/bin/sh: unexpected EOF while looking for `'' c:/djgpp/bin/sh: -c: line 2: syntax error process exited abnormally with code 2. And I ran man.exe at the shell mode on emacs, only `man less' showed me the less manual, while the `man gcc' gave the message man gcc^M c:/djgpp/bin/man.exe: c:/djgpp/bin/less.exeorgroff.exe -man -Tascii: No such file or directory(ENOENT) How could I use man.exe W.-X.
