Thanks for the pointers. xman(1) has difficulty seeing the C.UTF-8 symbols, for example in the case of ld.so(1).
Plan 9 OS sees C.UTF-8 symbols fine, a fancy NetBSD dom0 with Plan 9 OS domU will see ld.so(1) properly in the manpage viewer native tool. The site --> https://man.netbsd.org has man-cgi wrappers which would be nice to have on the local file system. bea...@sdf.org (beaker) writes: > Van Ly <van...@sdf.org> wrote: >> I found html manpages in /usr/share/man and there is only one >> proper index file, html3/index.html.
