-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.sp
-.LP
-The \fBman\fR command displays information from the reference manuals. It
-displays complete manual pages that you select by \fIname\fR, or one-line
-summaries selected either by \fIkeyword\fR (\fB-k\fR), or by the name of an
-associated file (\fB-f\fR). If no manual page is located, \fBman\fR prints an
-error message.
-.SS "Source Format"
-.sp
-.LP
-Reference Manual pages are marked up with either \fBnroff\fR (see
-\fBnroff\fR(1)) or \fBSGML\fR (Standard Generalized Markup Language) tags (see
-\fBsgml\fR(5)). The \fBman\fR command recognizes the type of markup and
-processes the file accordingly. The various source files are kept in separate
-directories depending on the type of markup.
-.SS "Location of Manual Pages"
-.sp
-.LP
-The online Reference Manual page directories are conventionally located in
-\fB/usr/share/man\fR. The nroff sources are located in the
-\fB/usr/share/man/man\fR* directories. The \fBSGML\fR sources are located in
-the \fB/usr/share/man/sman\fR* directories. Each directory corresponds to a
-section of the manual. Since these directories are optionally installed, they
-might not reside on your host. You might have to mount \fB/usr/share/man\fR
-from a host on which they do reside.
-.sp
-.LP
-If there are preformatted, up-to-date versions in the corresponding \fBcat\fR*
-or \fBfmt\fR* directories, \fBman\fR simply displays or prints those versions.
-If the preformatted version of interest is out of date or missing, \fBman\fR
-reformats it prior to display and stores the preformatted version if \fBcat\fR*
-or \fBfmt\fR* is writable. The \fBwindex\fR database is not updated. See
-\fBcatman\fR(1M). If directories for the preformatted versions are not
-provided, \fBman\fR reformats a page whenever it is requested. \fBman\fR uses a
-temporary file to store the formatted text during display.
-.sp
-.LP
-If the standard output is not a terminal, or if the `\fB-\fR' flag is given,
-\fBman\fR pipes its output through \fBcat\fR(1). Otherwise, \fBman\fR pipes its
-output through \fBmore\fR(1) to handle paging and underlining on the screen.
-.SH OPTIONS
-.sp
-.LP
-The following options are supported:
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fB-a\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 20n
-Shows all manual pages matching \fIname\fR within the \fBMANPATH\fR search
-path. Manual pages are displayed in the order found.
-.RE
-
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fB-d\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 20n
-Debugs. Displays what a section-specifier evaluates to, method used for
-searching, and paths searched by \fBman\fR.
-.RE
-
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fB-f\fR \fIfile ...\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 20n
-\fBman\fR attempts to locate manual pages related to any of the given
-\fIfile\fRs. It strips the leading path name components from each \fIfile\fR,
-and then prints one-line summaries containing the resulting basename or names.
-This option also uses the \fBwindex\fR database.
-.RE
-
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fB-F\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 20n
-Forces \fBman\fR to search all directories specified by \fBMANPATH\fR or the
-\fBman.cf\fR file, rather than using the \fBwindex\fR lookup database. This
-option is useful if the database is not up to date and it has been made the
-default behavior of the \fBman\fR command. The option therefore does not have
-to be invoked and is documented here for reference only.
-.RE
-
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fB-k\fR \fIkeyword ...\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 20n
-Prints out one-line summaries from the \fBwindex\fR database (table of
-contents) that contain any of the given \fIkeyword\fRs. The \fBwindex\fR
-database is created using \fBcatman\fR(1M).
-.RE
-
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fB-l\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 20n
-Lists all manual pages found matching \fIname\fR within the search path.
-.RE
-
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fB-M\fR \fIpath\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 20n
-Specifies an alternate search path for manual pages. \fIpath\fR is a
-colon-separated list of directories that contain manual page directory
-subtrees. For example, if \fIpath\fR is \fB/usr/share/man:/usr/local/man\fR,
-\fBman\fR searches for \fIname\fR in the standard location, and then
-\fB/usr/local/man\fR. When used with the \fB-k\fR or \fB-f\fR options, the
-\fB-M\fR option must appear first. Each directory in the \fIpath\fR is assumed
-to contain subdirectories of the form \fBman\fR* or \fBsman\fR* , one for each
-section. This option overrides the \fBMANPATH\fR environment variable.
-.RE
-
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fB-r\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 20n
-Reformats the manual page, but does not display it. This replaces the \fBman\fR
-\fB-\fR \fB-t\fR \fIname\fR combination.
-.RE
-
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fB-s\fR \fIsection ...\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 20n
-Specifies sections of the manual for \fBman\fR to search. The directories
-searched for \fIname\fR are limited to those specified by \fIsection\fR.
-\fIsection\fR can be a numerical digit, perhaps followed by one or more letters
-to match the desired section of the manual, for example, "\fB3libucb\fR". Also,
-\fIsection\fR can be a word, for example, \fBlocal\fR, \fBnew\fR, \fBold\fR,
-\fBpublic\fR. \fIsection\fR can also be a letter. To specify multiple sections,
-separate each section with a comma. This option overrides the \fBMANPATH\fR
-environment variable and the \fBman.cf\fR file. See \fBSearch\fR \fBPath\fR
-below for an explanation of how \fBman\fR conducts its search.
-.RE
-
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fB-t\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 20n
-\fBman\fR arranges for the specified manual pages to be \fBtroff\fRed to a
-suitable raster output device (see \fBtroff\fR(1)). If both the \fB-\fR and
-\fB-t\fR flags are given, \fBman\fR updates the \fBtroff\fRed versions of each
-named \fIname\fR (if necessary), but does not display them.
-.RE
-
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fB-T\fR \fImacro-package\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 20n
-Formats manual pages using \fImacro-package\fR rather than the standard
-\fB-man\fR macros defined in \fB/usr/share/lib/tmac/an\fR. See \fBSearch
-Path\fR under USAGE for a complete explanation of the default search path
-order.
-.RE
-
-.SH OPERANDS
-.sp
-.LP
-The following operand is supported:
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fIname\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 8n
-The name of a standard utility or a keyword.
-.RE
-
-.SH USAGE
-.sp
-.LP
-The usage of \fBman\fR is described below:
-.SS "Manual Page Sections"
-.sp
-.LP
-Entries in the reference manuals are organized into \fIsection\fRs. A section
-name consists of a major section name, typically a single digit, optionally
-followed by a subsection name, typically one or more letters. An unadorned
-major section name, for example, "\fB9\fR", does not act as an abbreviation for
-the subsections of that name, such as "\fB9e\fR", "\fB9f\fR", or "\fB9s\fR".
-That is, each subsection must be searched separately by \fBman\fR \fB-s\fR.
-Each section contains descriptions apropos to a particular reference category,
-with subsections refining these distinctions. See the \fBintro\fR manual pages
-for an explanation of the classification used in this release.
-.SS "Search Path"
-.sp
-.LP
-Before searching for a given \fIname\fR, \fBman\fR constructs a list of
-candidate directories and sections. \fBman\fR searches for \fIname\fR in the
-directories specified by the \fBMANPATH\fR environment variable.
-.sp
-.LP
-In the absence of \fBMANPATH\fR, \fBman\fR constructs its search path based
-upon the \fBPATH\fR environment variable, primarily by substituting \fBman\fR
-for the last component of the \fBPATH\fR element. Special provisions are added
-to account for unique characteristics of directories such as \fB/sbin\fR,
-\fB/usr/ucb\fR, \fB/usr/xpg4/bin\fR, and others. If the file argument contains
-a \fB/\fR character, the \fIdirname\fR portion of the argument is used in place
-of \fBPATH\fR elements to construct the search path.
-.sp
-.LP
-Within the manual page directories, \fBman\fR confines its search to the
-sections specified in the following order:
-.RS +4
-.TP
-.ie t \(bu
-.el o
-\fIsection\fRs specified on the command line with the \fB-s\fR option
-.RE
-.RS +4
-.TP
-.ie t \(bu
-.el o
-\fIsection\fRs embedded in the \fBMANPATH\fR environment variable
-.RE
-.RS +4
-.TP
-.ie t \(bu
-.el o
-\fIsection\fRs specified in the \fBman.cf\fR file for each directory specified
-in the \fBMANPATH\fR environment variable
-.RE
-.sp
-.LP
-If none of the above exist, \fBman\fR searches each directory in the manual
-page path, and displays the first matching manual page found.
-.sp
-.LP
-The \fBman.cf\fR file has the following format:
-.sp
-.in +2
-.nf
-MANSECTS=\fIsection\fR[,\fIsection\fR]...
-.fi
-.in -2
-.sp
-
-.sp
-.LP
-Lines beginning with `\fB#\fR' and blank lines are considered comments, and are
-ignored. Each directory specified in \fBMANPATH\fR can contain a manual page
-configuration file, specifying the default search order for that directory.
-.SH FORMATTING MANUAL PAGES
-.sp
-.LP
-Manual pages are marked up in \fBnroff\fR(1) or \fBsgml\fR(5). Nroff manual
-pages are processed by \fBnroff\fR(1) or \fBtroff\fR(1) with the \fB-man\fR
-macro package. Please refer to \fBman\fR(5) for information on macro usage.
-\fBSGML\fR\(emtagged manual pages are processed by an \fBSGML\fR parser and
-passed to the formatter.
-.SS "Preprocessing Nroff Manual Pages"
-.sp
-.LP
-When formatting an nroff manual page, \fBman\fR examines the first line to
-determine whether it requires special processing. If the first line is a string
-of the form:
-.sp
-.in +2
-.nf
-\&'\e" \fIX\fR
-.fi
-.in -2
-.sp
-
-.sp
-.LP
-where \fIX\fR is separated from the `\fB"\fR' by a single SPACE and consists of
-any combination of characters in the following list, \fBman\fR pipes its input
-to \fBtroff\fR(1) or \fBnroff\fR(1) through the corresponding preprocessors.
-.sp

-.RE
-
-.sp
-.LP
-If \fBeqn\fR or \fBneqn\fR is invoked, it automatically reads the file
-\fB/usr/pub/eqnchar\fR (see \fBeqnchar\fR(5)). If \fBnroff\fR(1) is invoked,
-\fBcol\fR(1) is automatically used.
-.SS "Referring to Other nroff Manual Pages"
-.sp
-.LP
-If the first line of the nroff manual page is a reference to another manual
-page entry fitting the pattern:
-.sp
-.in +2
-.nf
-\&.so man*/\fIsourcefile\fR
-.fi
-.in -2
-.sp
-
-.sp
-.LP
-\fBman\fR processes the indicated file in place of the current one. The
-reference must be expressed as a path name relative to the root of the manual
-page directory subtree.
-.sp
-.LP
-When the second or any subsequent line starts with \fB\&.so\fR, \fBman\fR
-ignores it; \fBtroff\fR(1) or \fBnroff\fR(1) processes the request in the usual
-manner.
-.SS "Processing SGML Manual Pages"
-.sp
-.LP
-Manual pages are identified as being marked up in SGML by the presence of the
-string \fB<!DOCTYPE\fR\&. If the file also contains the string
-\fBSHADOW_PAGE\fR, the file refers to another manual page for the content. The
-reference is made with a file entity reference to the manual page that contains
-the text. This is similar to the \fB\&.so\fR mechanism used in the nroff
-formatted man pages.
-.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
-.sp
-.LP
-See \fBenviron\fR(5) for descriptions of the following environment variables
-that affect the execution of \fBman\fR: \fBLANG\fR, \fBLC_ALL\fR,
-\fBLC_CTYPE\fR, \fBLC_MESSAGES\fR, and \fBNLSPATH\fR.
-.sp
-.ne 2
-.na
-\fB\fBMANPATH\fR\fR
-.ad
-.RS 11n
-A colon-separated list of directories; each directory can be followed by a
-comma-separated list of sections. If set, its value overrides
-\fB/usr/share/man\fR as the default directory search path, and the \fBman.cf\fR
-file as the default section search path. The \fB-M\fR and \fB-s\fR flags, in
-turn, override these values.)

-The \fBman\fR command is CSI-capable. However, some utilities invoked by the
-\fBman\fR command, namely, \fBtroff\fR, \fBeqn\fR, \fBneqn\fR, \fBrefer\fR,
-\fBtbl\fR, and \fBvgrind\fR, are not verified to be CSI-capable. Because of
-this, the man command with the \fB-t\fR option can not handle non-EUC data.
-Also, using the \fBman\fR command to display man pages that require special

-.SH BUGS
-.sp
-.LP
-The manual is supposed to be reproducible either on a phototypesetter or on an
-\fBASCII\fR terminal. However, on a terminal some information (indicated by
-font changes, for instance) is lost.
-.sp
-.LP
-Some dumb terminals cannot process the vertical motions produced by the \fBe\fR
-(see \fBeqn\fR(1)) preprocessing flag. To prevent garbled output on these
-terminals, when you use \fBe\fR, also use \fBt\fR, to invoke \fBcol\fR(1)
-implicitly. This workaround has the disadvantage of eliminating superscripts
-and subscripts, even on those terminals that can display them. Control-q clears
-a terminal that gets confused by \fBeqn\fR(1) output.
