I was using tkman to look at the man page. The first line does not say POSIX or Linux Programmers Manual. However, the search line in tkman shows at.1 while the file path above it shows at.1posix.
man at in a terminal has "Linux Programmer's Manual" on the top line, and does seem to match the interactive help shown above. at1.posix is part of manpages-posix. So, maybe this is more of a tkman issue? or manpages-posix? Ross -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
