| Subject: [vile] manpage.rc not working
| 
| I'm using vile 9.8m and manpage.rc doesn't seem to be working
| anymore.
| 
| ctrl-m dumps "sh: : command not found" into a buffer.
| 
| strace shows it trying to execute:
| execve("/bin/sh", ["sh", "-c", "man memset | \"\""]
| 
| I compiled with builtin-filters and installed into '/usr',
| vile-manfilt is in '/usr/lib64/vile'.
| 
| I'd imagine manpage.rc was supposed to execute something like:
| 'man memset | /usr/lib64/vile/vile-manfilt'

I don't recall changing the configure script regarding paths for a while...
Just to check things, I'd look first to see what's compiled into vile:

vile-manfilt is found using a search-path.  For instance, in "this" machine, if 
I do
2:which-exec vile-manfilt

the result shows it found in $libdir-path (after not finding it via $PATH)

which-exec and ShowManpage technically are different, but the latter does a

&lookup e+l+p

which tells vile to use the same rule as which-exec
