- NAME
-
- man - look up documentation on a command
-
- SYNOPSIS
-
- man command_1 command_2 ... command_N
-
- DESCRIPTION
-
- "Man" looks in the volume or directory "UUMan:" for information
- about the given commands, and then displays it on the screen.
-
- Here is exactly how "Man" works. If you type "Man myCommand",
- "Man" looks in the directory UUMAN: for a file called "myCommand".
- If it finds the file, it displays it on the screen using the
- file viewing program specified by the RFILTER entry in
- UUlib:Config.
-
- If no such file is found, you are told.
-
- So... for any program that you have, put its documentation file
- in UUMAN:. Name the documentation file the same as the program
- itself. Instead of searching for that documentation next time,
- all you have to do is type "Man command-name".
-
-
- FILES
-
- UULIB:Config RFilter entry sets the command Man uses
- to display a manual page.
-
- UUMAN: Manual directory.
-
- Assign For "Assign UUMAN: some-directory-of-your-choice".
