Are they items 3 to 31 actually useful?

Hi Denis,

well, with standard setting,

	$ texdoc ctable

should pop-up the first item (in this case "ctable.pdf") without a message
nor an interaction.

	$ texdoc -l ctable

will return the result, which you reported. (if a line "mode=list" or
"mode=showall" is in your configure file, it is not the case)

So, that kind of "list" results are somehow for "advanced" purposes/users.

Yes indeed, the 3rd to 31st documents seem almost meaningless, I agree,
but showing those in the "list" result is fine, I think.

Best,
Takuto

Indeed, sorry, my `$HOME/.aliases' contains:

  ?????
  ? alias texdoc='texdoc -l'
  ?????

Your comment below makes me realize that `mode=showall' in my
`texdoc.cnf' would be better: thanks!

IMHO, even for "advanced" purposes/users, it is not useful that much but
not a big deal :)

Best.
