Re: mysterious man page warning

["John McDermott" <jjm -at- jkintl -dot- com>]

This took a lot of searching thru some code. It seems that the error comes  
when groff tries to emulate nroff. The code to do that checks for utf-8  
encoding by trying to convert the document from utf-8 to utf-8 (using the  
*nix program "iconf") if that fails (which it clearly should not!), it  
thinks the encoding is incorrect.

Maybe a newer version of groff is in order (install then do the conversion  
again)? Maybe the Windows programs can use another character set.

I know this sounds pretty technical. If you want to discuss it further,  
please contact me off-list
