What were you trying to do?
Read the man page for olh.

What's wrong:
It's missing some text.  Here is an exerpt:

     OLH is available in both terminal-oriented and X based systems.  The
     default is to use the X based version where there is an X display avail-
     able.  The

     When you are using the X-based interface, the '-internal' and '-
     external' flags are used to select whether to use the built-in viewer

Note the end of the first paragraph, it seems cut off.

What should have happened:

I should have been able to see the rest of the phrase.  I can read it by
looking at /usr/athena/man/man1/help.1.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:

It seems that /usr/athena/man/cat1/help.1 is just not a correct version.
Running "nroff -man /usr/athena/man/man1/help.1" produce the correct
output (i.e. containing the rest of the paragraph).
