Unable to move fast between config files and manuals

Question

Man's manual have the following

Specify the configuration file to use; the default is /private/etc/man.conf. (See man.conf(5).)

The PATH is in bold for /private/etc/man.conf in man. It suggests me that it could be a hyperlink to the file. It would be cool to have a Emacs-like moving in man.

I have not succeeded to enter the file directly from man's manual.

How can you go the file directly from man's manual without doing the following in man?

Ctrl-Z
emacs /private/etc/man.conf

Answer 1

I don't know that I understand your question.

You can view the man pages in Emacs:

M-x man man

And from within the man page that comes up, with the point on the path in bold.

M-x find-file-at-point
