[OS X TeX] MacTeX installer and man pages

Hi all,

I just upgraded to Tiger and installed TeX and friends using the  
latest MacTeX installer (very nice!). I need to look at the man page  
for ps2pdf, so I opened the terminal and typed 'man ps2pdf'. This  
gives the response 'No manual entry for ps2pdf'. However, if I look  
in /usr/local/man/man1, I see ps2pdf.1, as I should. So apparently,  
something (path setting or otherwise) is not getting set for the man  
pages. What's the recommended way to do this? Shouldn't this have  
been done automagically by the MacTeX installer?

Thanks.

Chris Goedde
