multiple man arguments -> multiple files in less

Super User Asked by xdhmoore on December 6, 2020

When I type the following:

man task taskrc

The first man page is displayed and then once I’ve closed it, it presents me with some options:

--Man-- next: taskrc(5) [ view (return) | skip (Ctrl-D) | quit (Ctrl-C) ]

But what I really want to happen is for man to open both files and pipe them simultaneously to less so that I can switch back and forth in less between them using :n. Is it possible to configure man this way? I don’t see anything obvious in the man man page.
