Thank you very much to the following people who responded to my question
regarding an index of man pages.

My original question was:
Hi all:
Does anyone know if there's a file or utility that will list all of the
available man pages on the system? Solaris uses a file called windex
for this purpose, but as far as I can tell Dig UNIX doesn't have
anything like this. Your thoughts are appreciated.
I received many excellent ideas including: whatis, catman -w and xman.
catman -w did the trick! I hadn't realized that the whatis db file had
to be manually created. Thanks again.
Robin
