>Description:
This is a new version of 330.catman. It simplifies the code quite a bit, and pre-creates the necessary cat directories so that the script will not fail if they do not exist. The latter problem is especially noticeable with Perl ports.
If someone can show the output of 'manpath -qL' when locales are in use, and explain how that output relates to the directories under $MANPATH, it should be fairly simple to replicate the cat directory creation routine for them.
