Yes, it does a "$(PAGER)
/usr/doc/man/cat1/man.0" :-)
I don't think thats accurate in v6 unix (or many other
early research unixen). The man pages arent preformatted
into .0 files afaik.
Maybe I should have added a smiley. My point was that
originally you didn't
have a man program. You had man-pages, and you looked at them any way you
preferred. And that is what you observed, but didn't seem to grasp, when you
looked at V6 (hence the question about where the man-program is).
Short answer then: there is none.
I don't think that is accurate.
