  | You are right.
  | Can someone explain why this doesn't work (sorry, newbie)?

The '>' is done (by your shell) before the man command is started.
When man does start, if the output were placed directly in .../cat1/tcsh.0
then man would see that (empty) file existing already, print it
for you, and do nothing else.
