Hi all,

        I'm trying to install opengl man pages from ftp.sgi.com and I'm having 
problems finding documentation on the subject. First, the extension is different. On 
Linux, the extension for man pages is .bz2, a compressed extension using bzip2 as a 
decompressor. The extension from sgi is .3gl. It's uncompressed and I guess that the 3 
is for section 3 and gl is for opengl. for example: gluBeginCurve.3gl

If I try 
man /usr/man/gluBeginCurve.3gl
it's working... 

If I try:
man gluBeginCurve
It's not working.

/usr/man is in my $MANPATH and the extension .3gl is in the /etc/man.config file.

The manpage of man is not very usefull on the subject...

Can someone help me or provide me with better documentation?

Thanks...
