If your sequent system doesn't do "apropos" right, I've got
such a deal for you:  more than one response(s) via posting
or e-mail might persuade me to post my "new_makewhatis".
I had to do it to keep the faith with my recently posted
"help" system (comp.sources.misc).  Does your sequent system
have all the supplied man-pages off in a directory in .Z format?
If so, you need "new_makewhatis", I think (?).
