       manpath  tries  to determine the user's manpath from a set
       of system defaults and  the  user's  PPAATTHH  ,,  echoing  the
       result  to  the  standard output.  Warnings and errors are
       written to the standard error.   If  a  directory  in  the
       user's path is not listed in the manpath.config file, man-
       path looks for the subdirectories man  or  MAN.   If  they
       exist, they are added to the search path.

       manpath  is  used  by mmaann to determine the search path, so
       user's normally don't need to set the MMAANNPPAATTHH  environment
       variable directly.

       --qq     Operate quietly.  Only echo the final manpath.

       MMAANNPPAATTHH  If  MMAANNPPAATTHH  is  set, mmaannppaatthh echoes its value on
                the standard output and issues a warning  on  the
                standard error.
