Hi,
In console (without X), under NetBSD 5.1.2, with mksh R40d, when I
want to see man pages (e.g man mksh), I've got this error.
man: Formatting manual page...
sh: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
sh: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
I can't see man pages.

Please *temporarily* move your /bin/sh out of the way and
put a link to mksh there and see whether the error persists.
If not, my first guess is that PS1 is exported.
bye,

This happens. For example, we changed this: >> If not, my first guess is that PS1 is exported. So, config files need to be updated occasionally, too. >PS1 is not exported, no export PS1 in ~/.mkshrc > >olivier <at> judas:~ $ env | grep PS1 OK, then something else, $ENV maybe. Just look in the exported environment for mkshisms. (Note that $ENV should be totally unset for normal mksh operation.) bye, //mirabilos -- -- 13:22⎜«neurodamage» mira, what's up man?
