What were you trying to do?
See the manual page for random(3) via sman.
What's wrong:
It kept giving me the page for random(3F). Both when I did a
straight search, and when I went to the "subroutines" section and did a
search. (I did eventually find the correct manual page by looking at the
directory of subroutines.)
What should have happened:
It should either offer you your choice of 3 or 3f routines with
the same name, or else give the C routine as the default.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
man xman
