I was wonderiong if ther is a way for a user to add a man page specific to thier account. similar to copying the .1 or .1.gz to /usr/share/man/man1 "cp *.1.gz /usr/share/man/man1". Except for using another folder as I don't have access to /usr/share/man/man1. I would think that this might involve changing some environment variable or something to point to a folder containing the .1 or .1.gz file but I really have no clue. Any help would be appreciated even if its only: "you can't do that dumbass".
-Thanks
There is an environment variable called MANPATH. This is used by 'man' to search for man pages.
