But that only affects less, and not man pages. It's a fine line, but I know at least a few people that don't use less as their MANPAGER
Those people should. If color is the reason for using most, see http://nion.modprobe.de/blog/archives/572-less-colors-for-man-pages.html I have added that to the Wiki too: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Post_Installation_Tips#Getting_a_colored... Less is much more powerful than most.
