have you tried 'man truss'. Should be no magic there. I'm not sure of what 
you expect 'truss man -M <path> <page>' to do for you, but I'm quite sure 
you are twisting things around here. If truss manual page has been 
correctly installed you should be able to read the man page with 'man 
truss'. 'truss -help' would probably give you the closest to your 'truss 
man -M <path> <page>'. But maybe I don't know what the heck I'm talking 
about :)
