Re: mwm(1) is a mess UGHGH!

[Todd Gruhn <tgruhn2%gmail.com@localhost>]

'man mwm' gives the same mess.

Down around   'Default Window Menu'

Perlman2 uses 'man';  catch the result and stick in a GUI.


 'man mwm'  shows that the problem is in the man.1 file.
I dont know how to fix it.

Since this is installed by using PKGs; this need to fixed on that end.
