What were you trying to do?
read man pages
What's wrong:
internationalization i18n causes many things to come up as gibberish
such as " and '
What should have happened:
They should have displayed properly
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
if you (under csh) 'setenv LANG ""' then man works fine.
Class help was recommending unsetting LC_* vars
