texdoc works OK for me, on a Mac with Sierra.

<div class="">BTW When you use the menu item in TeXshop to show or display help for a package</div>
<div class="">it is texdoc working underneath that does the work to find the PDF file(s) for</div>
<div class="">the package you are interested in. So this is a vital piece of infrastructure</div>
<div class="">for TeXshop.</div>

Hi,</div>

Since upgrading to the most recent version of MacTeX I am seeing the following error if I try to use the texdoc command in a terminal window:</div>
<div id="m_-8583719200438851099bloop_customfont" style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial; font-size: 13px; margin: 0px;" class="">

<span style="font-variant-ligatures:no-common-ligatures" class="">[machine-name]:~ folder$ texdoc enumitem</span></div>

<div class=""><span style="font-variant-ligatures:no-common-ligatures" class=""><br class="">
</span></div>
<div class=""><span style="font-variant-ligatures:no-common-ligatures" class="">I should point out that this is true for all packages that I have tried, not just enumitem. Is anybody else seeing this? Google didn’t reveal anything that seemed especially relevant.
Does anybody have an idea of how to fix the problem, because losing the texdoc command would be very inconvenient.</span></div>
