man isatty (was RE: Character at a time input)


Doesn't seem to work on my system:

# man isatty
No manual entry for isatty
#

I have cygwin 1.3.12-4 installed, as
well as cygwin-doc 1.1-2.  I also have a newlib-man 20020801.  My
/usr/include/sys/unistd.h contains a prototype for isatty.
Am I missing something else?

P.S. The above are only the packages I've considered relevant.  I can
provide a full output of cygcheck if needed.
