Hello,
  I have tried many versions of 'man' & get the following error:

/usr/sbin -> man ls
Error executing formatting or display command.
System command (cd /usr/man ; (echo -e ".pl 1100i"; cat /usr/man/man1/ls.1;
echo
 ".pl \n(nlu+10") | /usr/bin/tbl | /usr/bin/groff -Tascii -mandoc | less
-is) ex
ited with status 32512.
No manual entry for ls

Any ideas?

I am running the latest CYGWIN & bash on Win2000 Pro SP1,
Michael

Hmm...  Trying `info FAQ' fails too.  What's the problem? ;^)
