Hi all:
Thanks to all who replied.  Several folks mentioned that the man part of
my question (a man that understands MANPATH) is covered in the FAQ, and
indeed it is.  I chose the second one listed in the FAQ, mainly because
the first one listed is at a site that seems to no longer be
operational.

However, no one responded with a more intelligent version of at.  I am
forced to conclude (after two tries here to find an at replacement) that
either one does not exist or if it does, no one on this list knows about
it.  In the meantime, I've used some neat kludges I found in O'Reilly's
Unix Power Tools book.

Cheers,
--Lee
