Well, I searched a bit but didn't see anything already posted about this. I just installed growlnotify, had to use the sudo command, and I also had to create the /usr/local/man/man1 directory myself. After creating the directory growlnotify installed no problem, but when I try "man 1 growl notify" it says "No entry for growlnotify in section 1 of the manual". Similar error when I try "man growlnotify". I checked and the manpage was installed into the directory I created, and the path /usr/local/bin is in my .profile file. Any suggestions?
Im using growl .72 and os x 10.4.3
Oh yeah, growlnotify runs like it should when i type it, just not the manpage
Well, edited again cause i fixed it. I just copied the manpage to /usr/share/man/man1 which i found by typing manpath. works fine now, is this a 10.4.3 thing mabey?
man page for growl notify
It's probably that since /usr/local paths don't exist per default, they are also not included in your PATH and MANPATH per default.
Basically, if you create /usr/local/… yourself, you have to modify/set up your environment variables yourself, too.
I found this in my bash profile file:

Code: Select all
MANPATH="$MANPATH:/usr/local/man"
export MANPATH
