Default Re: Color Man Pages?

I should have stated that the env variables are displayed as below (as they just call the color escape sequences)

paracelsus@Callandor:~> env | grep -i term
LESS_TERMCAP_mb=
LESS_TERMCAP_md= (displays in red)
LESS_TERMCAP_me= (displays in blue)
TERM=xterm
LESS_TERMCAP_ue=
LESS_TERMCAP_us=
LESS_TERMCAP_so= (displays in grey)
LESS_TERMCAP_se=
COLORTERM=1

They show up okay for me when I show them with env | grep -i term but they don't actually work in displaying the man pages with less as the pager, etc.

Cheers,
Pete
