I'm running RedHat 9 on a headless PC. I normally connect in via an xterm with ssh. I'm getting strange characters on my man pages where I should have an apostrophe.
emacs' will shows up as emacsâ Â
That didn't paste correctly. It actaully looks like emacs^[square box][square box]
In gnome-term the apostrophe will show up as an a with a ^ on top.
Does anyone know why this happens, and how I can fix t
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Incorrect Man Page display.
Before that, check your TERM variable. And you could try to get to the manual page file (should be something like /usr/man/man1/emacs.1, /usr/man/man1.Z/emacs.1) and do:
groff -man emacs.1 | less
or
gzip -cd emacs.1 | groff -man | less
That way a broken formatted file will be ignored. If it works with the above command, remove the emacs file from the cat1 or cat1.Z directory.

Re: Incorrect Man Page display.
Changing the LANG environment is the usual fix.
