  I am wondering what to do with additional man pages i get.
 I have been placing them in, say... man1 or someplace that seems appropriate.

 However, what i would like is to be able to place additional topics into an
addition directory.  For example: i install TeX, so all the manual pages should
go into man9.  etc.

 If anyone has insights or solutions, please let me know.
