PostgreSQL 6.5 can be built on SCO UnixWare 7 and SCO OpenServer 5. PostgreSQL 7.0 can be built on SCO UnixWare 7 and SCO OpenServer 5.
On OpenServer, you can use either the OpenServer Development Kit or On OpenServer, you can use either the OpenServer Development Kit or
the Universal Development Kit. the Universal Development Kit.

You need to make two changes to access the PostgreSQL man pages from UnixWare. You need to make the following changes to access the PostgreSQL man pages
from UnixWare.
1) You need to modify the MANPATH environment variable. I use: 1) You need to modify the MANPATH variable in /etc/default/man. I use:
MANPATH=/usr/local/pgsql/man:/usr/dt/man:/usr/man:/usr/share/man:scohelp MANPATH=/usr/lib/scohelp/%L/man:/usr/dt/man:/usr/man:/usr/share/man:scohelp:/usr/local/man:/usr/local/pgsql/man
export MANPATH
2) The man pages for SQL commands are, by default, placed in section l 2) Add a line that says '1sql' to /etc/default/manSection.

section, such as section 6. To accomplish that: (normally used for "l"ocal pages). UnixWare does not support the 'l'
section.
The solution I use is to move all these pages from section 'l' to a section
named '1sql'. To following KSH script will perform the move and change the
section names in the man page:

mv $file `basename $file .l`.6 sed -e '/^\.TH/s/"l"/"1sql"/' $i >../man.1sql/${i%.l}.1sql

rm -rf manl

After running this script, you can view the man pages using the 'man'
command. They will not be usable from the scohelp system.
I am working on integrating the man pages into the scohelp system. When I
generate a PostgreSQL package for UnixWare 7.x, the man pages will be
integrated into the scohelp system.
