1 While talking to some people (chouser) on #gentoo last night, I realized
2 that I wasn't the only one seeing weird <AD> characters wherever a
3 hyphen was supposed to appear in a man page. After a bit of research we
4 found that setting LESSCHARSET=latin1 fixes the problem. Perhaps this
5 should be in the baselayout /etc/profile?
