Hi all.
I just installed libncurses5-dev.
man ncurses gives me a very nice overview of
ncurses.
It also gives me a very big list of function
within ncurses. Next to each function name is the
matching man page name.
for instance, clear() has the man page
clear(3NCURSES).

when I type man clear(3NCURSES) i get 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/src$ man clear(3NCURSES)
bash: syntax error near unexpected token
`clear(3'

However, I did find that particular page in
/usr/share/man/man3/clear.3ncurses.gz

How do I view this page using the man command?

I have had this problem with many other pages,
not just ncurses.

thanks!!
