Under SunOS 5.7, if windex is generated by /bin/catman -w, man command
cannot refer zsh online manuals.

Because man command under SunOS 5.7 uses windex to search a manual
file, empty windex causes the "No manual entry for zsh." error.

Is there a way to make online manuals suitable for Solaris 7 catman?
