[OS X] X11 doesn't find man pages

[guillaume mauger]

Sorry about that.  I mean that if I run the Terminal program that comes 
with the default OS X installation (I don't know what it's called), I 
can bring up any of the man pages (eg, "man ls" works).

If instead I use X11, which I've installed since getting the mac, 
neither "man ls" nor any other man page comes up (error message: "no 
manual entry for ls").

I assume this is simply because X11 doesn't know where to look for the 
man pages, although I'm a bit confused as to how that is possible, and 
don't know where I would add the necessary pointer.

cheers,
-guillaume
