Short: MrMan-like manual browser (needs FDB & MUI)
Author: ferber@rpk.mach.uni-karlsruhe.de (Tobias Ferber)
Uploader: tf@antares.ping.de (Tobias Ferber)
Type: util/cli
Distribution: GPL
New: AMan can now also be invoked from the Workbench!
AMan uses kMel's FindDB clone "FDB" to collect documentation files from a
a given expression and lists the matches in a simple MUI window. Depening
on a configuration file ENV:AMan.config it will then spawn an external
viewer to show the selected file. A sample config file could look like
this:
; Template: PATTERN/A,COMMAND/A
"#?.(doc|txt|readme)" "Most *"%s*""
"#?.dvi" "ShowDVI *"%s*""
"#?.guide" "Run <NIL: >NIL: AmigaGuide *"%s*""
"#?" "Run <NIL: >NIL: MultiView *"%s*""
By default, AMan wants it's own FDB database "FindDB:aman.codes" however,
it can read from any other database as well.
