"man -k" has absolutely       nothing to do with a Unix Shell. It's a standalone utility that       searches the man files for keywords. One could always write an       equivalent for VMS HELP if anyone really cared. Heck, you could       even call it "man" and give it a "k" option. :-)              bill              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
