System name: podge
Type and version: KN01 7.3P (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type: PMAX-MFB
What were you trying to do?
Read the "Restrictions" section of the dbm man page, using
/usr/athena/bin/man dbm
What's wrong:
The man page is formatted incorrectly. The display includes:
The .pagfile four times its actual content. Older UNIX systems may
create real file blocks for these holes when touched.
What should have happened:
That section of the man page should appear as:
The .pagfile will contain holes so that its apparent size is about
four times its actual content. Older UNIX systems may create
real file blocks for these holes when touched.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
dbm(3x)
