  4. The paths to some programs get written into man's files. Unfortunately, the
  5. configure script picks the last location in PATH rather than the first
  6. where a program is found. By appending /usr/bin:/bin to PATH for the
  7. ./configure command, we make sure that man doesn't use the /static versions
  8. of our programs.</para>

  10. The version of groff we installed supports SGR (Set Graphics Rendition)
  11. escape sequences. In order for our man pages to display properly, we
  12. add the R argument to the call for the less pager.</para>
