After use of `source ~/dlang/dmd-2.085.0/activate` and/or `source ~/dlang/dmd-2.085.0/activate.fish` they do not include the MANPATH environment variable, thus unable to look up, e.g., man rdmd, man dmd, or man dmd.conf. Suggest modifying `script/install.sh` to add MANPATH to activate source scripts.
