Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
	Answer a question about mwm, namely "on an sgi, with skip_sgi,
	running mwm, how do i get the focus to go with where the mouse
	pointer is instead of requiring a click?"

	In order to answer this, I tried to get the man page for mwm.

What's wrong:
	277:marthag@small-gods: man mwm
	No manual entry for mwm.

What should have happened:
	First of all, Mwm*keyboardFocusPolicy should be set to pointer
	on the sgi's for a consistent user interface.

	Secondly, the man page should be installed on the suns in
	/usr/athena/man if the program is in /usr/athena/bin, rather
	than not being installed at all.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	I'd say, man mwm, but you'd have to be on a machine where the
	man page was installed, wouldn't you?
