Kris Knigga -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Aaron Bliss Sent: Tuesday, August 05, 2008 1:04 PM To: redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: some weird behavior when viewing man pages I noticed that displaying man pages looks a bit funny. The box is running redhat 5 ES, using bash shell, over ssh via putty on a windows xp box. For instance, when I man man the first word for the -w option is Donât --which I assume should read as Don't. Further down, for the LANG section there are two more uses of â associated with the text LANG and foo. Any ideas on this? Thanks.
