Each page argument given to man is nor‐ + mally the name of a program, utility or function. The manual page associ‐ + ated with each of these arguments is then found and displayed. A section, + if provided, will direct man to look only in that section of the manual. + The default action is to search in all of the available sections following + a pre-defined order ("1 n l 8 3 2 3posix 3pm 3perl 5 4 9 6 7" by default, + unless overridden by the SECTION directive in /etc/manpath.config), and to + show only the first page found, even if page exists in several sections. + + The table below shows the section numbers of the manual followed by the + types of pages they contain. + + + 1 Executable programs or shell commands + 2 System calls (functions provided by the kernel) + 3 Library calls (functions within program libraries) + 4 Special files (usually found in /dev) + 5 File formats and conventions eg /etc/passwd + 6 Games + 7 Miscellaneous (including macro packages and conventions), e.g. man(7), + groff(7) + 8 System administration commands (usually only for root) + 9 Kernel routines [Non standard] + + A manual page consists of several sections. + + Conventional section names include NAME, SYNOPSIS, CONFIGURATION, DESCRIP‐ + TION, OPTIONS, EXIT STATUS, RETURN VALUE, ERRORS, ENVIRONMENT, FILES, VER‐ + SIONS, CONFORMING TO, NOTES, BUGS, EXAMPLE, AUTHORS, and SEE ALSO. + + The following conventions apply to the SYNOPSIS section and can be used as + a guide in other sections. + + + bold text type exactly as shown. + italic text replace with appropriate argument. + [-abc] any or all arguments within [ ] are optional. + -a|-b options delimited by | cannot be used together. + argument ... argument is repeatable. + [expression] ... entire expression within [ ] is repeatable. + + Exact rendering may vary depending on the output device. For instance, man + will usually not be able to render italics when running in a terminal, and + will typically use underlined or coloured text instead. + + The command or function illustration is a pattern that should match all + possible invocations. In some cases it is advisable to illustrate several + exclusive invocations as is shown in the SYNOPSIS section of this manual + page. + +EXAMPLES + man ls + Display the manual page for the item (program) ls. + + man -a intro + Display, in succession, all of the available intro manual pages con‐ + tained within the manual. It is possible to quit between successive + displays or skip any of them. + + man -t alias | lpr -Pps + Format the manual page referenced by `alias', usually a shell manual + page, into the default troff or groff format and pipe it to the printer + named ps. The default output for groff is usually PostScript. man + --help should advise as to which processor is bound to the -t option. + + man -l -Tdvi ./foo.1x.gz > ./foo.1x.dvi + This command will decompress and format the nroff source manual page + ./foo.1x.gz into a device independent (dvi) file. The redirection is + necessary as the -T flag causes output to be directed to stdout with no + pager. The output could be viewed with a program such as xdvi or fur‐ + ther processed into PostScript using a program such as dvips. + + man -k printf + Search the short descriptions and manual page names for the keyword + printf as regular expression. Print out any matches. Equivalent to + apropos -r printf. + + man -f smail + Lookup the manual pages referenced by smail and print out the short + descriptions of any found. Equivalent to whatis -r smail. + +OVERVIEW + Many options are available to man in order to give as much flexibility as + possible to the user. Changes can be made to the search path, section + order, output processor, and other behaviours and operations detailed + below. + + If set, various environment variables are interrogated to determine the + operation of man. It is possible to set the `catch all' variable $MANOPT + to any string in command line format with the exception that any spaces + used as part of an option's argument must be escaped (preceded by a back‐ + slash). man will parse $MANOPT prior to parsing its own command line. + Those options requiring an argument will be overridden by the same options + found on the command line. To reset all of the options set in $MANOPT, -D + can be specified as the initial command line option. This will allow man + to `forget' about the options specified in $MANOPT although they must still + have been valid. + + The manual pager utilities packaged as man-db make extensive use of index + database caches. These caches contain information such as where each man‐ + ual page can be found on the filesystem and what its whatis (short one line + description of the man page) contains, and allow man to run faster than if + it had to search the filesystem each time to find the appropriate manual + page. If requested using the -u option, man will ensure that the caches + remain consistent, which can obviate the need to manually run software to + update traditional whatis text databases. + + If man cannot find a mandb initiated index database for a particular manual + page hierarchy, it will still search for the requested manual pages, + although file globbing will be necessary to search within that hierarchy. + If whatis or apropos fails to find an index it will try to extract informa‐ + tion from a traditional whatis database instead. + + These utilities support compressed source nroff files having, by default, + the extensions of .Z, .z and .gz. It is possible to deal with any compres‐ + sion extension, but this information must be known at compile time. Also, + by default, any cat pages produced are compressed using gzip. Each + `global' manual page hierarchy such as /usr/share/man or /usr/X11R6/man may + have any directory as its cat page hierarchy. Traditionally the cat pages + are stored under the same hierarchy as the man pages, but for reasons such + as those specified in the File Hierarchy Standard (FHS), it may be better + to store them elsewhere. For details on how to do this, please read man‐ + path(5). For details on why to do this, read the standard. + + International support is available with this package. Native language man‐ + ual pages are accessible (if available on your system) via use of locale + functions. To activate such support, it is necessary to set either + $LC_MESSAGES, $LANG or another system dependent environment variable to + your language locale, usually specified in the POSIX 1003.1 based format: + + <language>[_<territory>[.<character-set>[,<version>]]] + + If the desired page is available in your locale, it will be displayed in + lieu of the standard (usually American English) page. + + Support for international message catalogues is also featured in this pack‐ + age and can be activated in the same way, again if available. If you find + that the manual pages and message catalogues supplied with this package are + not available in your native language and you would like to supply them, + please contact the maintainer who will be coordinating such activity. + + For information regarding other features and extensions available with this + manual pager, please read the documents supplied with the package. + +DEFAULTS + man will search for the desired manual pages within the index database + caches. If the -u option is given, a cache consistency check is performed + to ensure the databases accurately reflect the filesystem. If this option + is always given, it is not generally necessary to run mandb after the + caches are initially created, unless a cache becomes corrupt. However, the + cache consistency check can be slow on systems with many manual pages + installed, so it is not performed by default, and system administrators may + wish to run mandb every week or so to keep the database caches fresh. To + forestall problems caused by outdated caches, man will fall back to file + globbing if a cache lookup fails, just as it would if no cache was present. + + Once a manual page has been located, a check is performed to find out if a + relative preformatted `cat' file already exists and is newer than the nroff + file. If it does and is, this preformatted file is (usually) decompressed + and then displayed, via use of a pager. The pager can be specified in a + number of ways, or else will fall back to a default is used (see option -P + for details). If no cat is found or is older than the nroff file, the + nroff is filtered through various programs and is shown immediately. + + If a cat file can be produced (a relative cat directory exists and has + appropriate permissions), man will compress and store the cat file in the + background. + + The filters are deciphered by a number of means. Firstly, the command line + option -p or the environment variable $MANROFFSEQ is interrogated. If -p + was not used and the environment variable was not set, the initial line of + the nroff file is parsed for a preprocessor string. To contain a valid + preprocessor string, the first line must resemble + + '\" <string> + + where string can be any combination of letters described by option -p + below. + + If none of the above methods provide any filter information, a default set + is used. + + A formatting pipeline is formed from the filters and the primary formatter + (nroff or [tg]roff with -t) and executed. Alternatively, if an executable + program mandb_nfmt (or mandb_tfmt with -t) exists in the man tree root, it + is executed instead. It gets passed the manual source file, the preproces‐ + sor string, and optionally the device specified with -T or -E as arguments. + +OPTIONS + Non argument options that are duplicated either on the command line, in + $MANOPT, or both, are not harmful. For options that require an argument, + each duplication will override the previous argument value. + + General options + -C file, --config-file=file + Use this user configuration file rather than the default of ~/.man‐ + path. + + -d, --debug + Print debugging information. + + -D, --default + This option is normally issued as the very first option and resets + man's behaviour to its default. Its use is to reset those options + that may have been set in $MANOPT. Any options that follow -D will + have their usual effect. + + --warnings[=warnings] + Enable warnings from groff. This may be used to perform sanity + checks on the source text of manual pages. warnings is a comma-sep‐ + arated list of warning names; if it is not supplied, the default is + "mac". See the “Warnings” node in info groff for a list of avail‐ + able warning names. + + Main modes of operation + -f, --whatis + Equivalent to whatis. Display a short description from the manual + page, if available. See whatis(1) for details. + + -k, --apropos + Equivalent to apropos. Search the short manual page descriptions + for keywords and display any matches. See apropos(1) for details. + + -K, --global-apropos + Search for text in all manual pages. This is a brute-force search, + and is likely to take some time; if you can, you should specify a + section to reduce the number of pages that need to be searched. + Search terms may be simple strings (the default), or regular expres‐ + sions if the --regex option is used. + + -l, --local-file + Activate `local' mode. Format and display local manual files + instead of searching through the system's manual collection. Each + manual page argument will be interpreted as an nroff source file in + the correct format. No cat file is produced. If '-' is listed as + one of the arguments, input will be taken from stdin. When this + option is not used, and man fails to find the page required, before + displaying the error message, it attempts to act as if this option + was supplied, using the name as a filename and looking for an exact + match. + + -w, --where, --path, --location + Don't actually display the manual pages, but do print the loca‐ + tion(s) of the source nroff files that would be formatted. + + -W, --where-cat, --location-cat + Don't actually display the manual pages, but do print the loca‐ + tion(s) of the cat files that would be displayed. If -w and -W are + both specified, print both separated by a space. + + -c, --catman + This option is not for general use and should only be used by the + catman program. + + -R encoding, --recode=encoding + Instead of formatting the manual page in the usual way, output its + source converted to the specified encoding. If you already know the + encoding of the source file, you can also use manconv(1) directly. + However, this option allows you to convert several manual pages to a + single encoding without having to explicitly state the encoding of + each, provided that they were already installed in a structure simi‐ + lar to a manual page hierarchy. + + Finding manual pages + -L locale, --locale=locale + man will normally determine your current locale by a call to the C + function setlocale(3) which interrogates various environment vari‐ + ables, possibly including $LC_MESSAGES and $LANG. To temporarily + override the determined value, use this option to supply a locale + string directly to man. Note that it will not take effect until the + search for pages actually begins. Output such as the help message + will always be displayed in the initially determined locale. + + -m system[,...], --systems=system[,...] + If this system has access to other operating system's manual pages, + they can be accessed using this option. To search for a manual page + from NewOS's manual page collection, use the option -m NewOS. + + The system specified can be a combination of comma delimited operat‐ + ing system names. To include a search of the native operating sys‐ + tem's manual pages, include the system name man in the argument + string. This option will override the $SYSTEM environment variable. + + -M path, --manpath=path + Specify an alternate manpath to use. By default, man uses manpath + derived code to determine the path to search. This option overrides + the $MANPATH environment variable and causes option -m to be + ignored. + + A path specified as a manpath must be the root of a manual page + hierarchy structured into sections as described in the man-db manual + (under "The manual page system"). To view manual pages outside such + hierarchies, see the -l option. + + -S list, -s list, --sections=list + List is a colon- or comma-separated list of `order specific' manual + sections to search. This option overrides the $MANSECT environment + variable. (The -s spelling is for compatibility with System V.) + + -e sub-extension, --extension=sub-extension + Some systems incorporate large packages of manual pages, such as + those that accompany the Tcl package, into the main manual page + hierarchy. To get around the problem of having two manual pages + with the same name such as exit(3), the Tcl pages were usually all + assigned to section l. As this is unfortunate, it is now possible + to put the pages in the correct section, and to assign a specific + `extension' to them, in this case, exit(3tcl). Under normal opera‐ + tion, man will display exit(3) in preference to exit(3tcl). To + negotiate this situation and to avoid having to know which section + the page you require resides in, it is now possible to give man a + sub-extension string indicating which package the page must belong + to. Using the above example, supplying the option -e tcl to man + will restrict the search to pages having an extension of *tcl. + + -i, --ignore-case + Ignore case when searching for manual pages. This is the default. + + -I, --match-case + Search for manual pages case-sensitively. + + --regex + Show all pages with any part of either their names or their descrip‐ + tions matching each page argument as a regular expression, as with + apropos(1). Since there is usually no reasonable way to pick a + "best" page when searching for a regular expression, this option + implies -a. + + --wildcard + Show all pages with any part of either their names or their descrip‐ + tions matching each page argument using shell-style wildcards, as + with apropos(1) --wildcard. The page argument must match the entire + name or description, or match on word boundaries in the description. + Since there is usually no reasonable way to pick a "best" page when + searching for a wildcard, this option implies -a. + + --names-only + If the --regex or --wildcard option is used, match only page names, + not page descriptions, as with whatis(1). Otherwise, no effect. + + -a, --all + By default, man will exit after displaying the most suitable manual + page it finds. Using this option forces man to display all the man‐ + ual pages with names that match the search criteria. + + -u, --update + This option causes man to perform an `inode level' consistency check + on its database caches to ensure that they are an accurate represen‐ + tation of the filesystem. It will only have a useful effect if man + is installed with the setuid bit set. + + --no-subpages + By default, man will try to interpret pairs of manual page names + given on the command line as equivalent to a single manual page name + containing a hyphen or an underscore. This supports the common pat‐ + tern of programs that implement a number of subcommands, allowing + them to provide manual pages for each that can be accessed using + similar syntax as would be used to invoke the subcommands them‐ + selves. For example: + + $ man -aw git diff + /usr/share/man/man1/git-diff.1.gz + + To disable this behaviour, use the --no-subpages option. + + $ man -aw --no-subpages git diff + /usr/share/man/man1/git.1.gz + /usr/share/man/man3/Git.3pm.gz + /usr/share/man/man1/diff.1.gz + + Controlling formatted output + -P pager, --pager=pager + Specify which output pager to use. By default, man uses pager -s. + This option overrides the $MANPAGER environment variable, which in + turn overrides the $PAGER environment variable. It is not used in + conjunction with -f or -k. + + The value may be a simple command name or a command with arguments, + and may use shell quoting (backslashes, single quotes, or double + quotes). It may not use pipes to connect multiple commands; if you + need that, use a wrapper script, which may take the file to display + either as an argument or on standard input. + + -r prompt, --prompt=prompt + If a recent version of less is used as the pager, man will attempt + to set its prompt and some sensible options. The default prompt + looks like + + Manual page name(sec) line x + + where name denotes the manual page name, sec denotes the section it + was found under and x the current line number. This is achieved by + using the $LESS environment variable. + + Supplying -r with a string will override this default. The string + may contain the text $MAN_PN which will be expanded to the name of + the current manual page and its section name surrounded by `(' and + `)'. The string used to produce the default could be expressed as + + \ Manual\ page\ \$MAN_PN\ ?ltline\ %lt?L/%L.: + byte\ %bB?s/%s..?\ (END):?pB\ %pB\\%.. + (press h for help or q to quit) + + It is broken into three lines here for the sake of readability only. + For its meaning see the less(1) manual page. The prompt string is + first evaluated by the shell. All double quotes, back-quotes and + backslashes in the prompt must be escaped by a preceding backslash. + The prompt string may end in an escaped $ which may be followed by + further options for less. By default man sets the -ix8 options. + + The $MANLESS environment variable described below may be used to set + a default prompt string if none is supplied on the command line. + + -7, --ascii + When viewing a pure ascii(7) manual page on a 7 bit terminal or ter‐ + minal emulator, some characters may not display correctly when using + the latin1(7) device description with GNU nroff. This option allows + pure ascii manual pages to be displayed in ascii with the latin1 + device. It will not translate any latin1 text. The following table + shows the translations performed: some parts of it may only be dis‐ + played properly when using GNU nroff's latin1(7) device. + + + Description Octal latin1 ascii + ────────────────────────────────────────── + continuation 255 ‐ - + hyphen + bullet (middle 267 · o + dot) + acute accent 264 ´ ' + multiplication 327 × x + sign + + If the latin1 column displays correctly, your terminal may be set up + for latin1 characters and this option is not necessary. If the + latin1 and ascii columns are identical, you are reading this page + using this option or man did not format this page using the latin1 + device description. If the latin1 column is missing or corrupt, you + may need to view manual pages with this option. + + This option is ignored when using options -t, -H, -T, or -Z and may + be useless for nroff other than GNU's. + + -E encoding, --encoding=encoding + Generate output for a character encoding other than the default. + For backward compatibility, encoding may be an nroff device such as + ascii, latin1, or utf8 as well as a true character encoding such as + UTF-8. + + --no-hyphenation, --nh + Normally, nroff will automatically hyphenate text at line breaks + even in words that do not contain hyphens, if it is necessary to do + so to lay out words on a line without excessive spacing. This + option disables automatic hyphenation, so words will only be hyphen‐ + ated if they already contain hyphens. + + If you are writing a manual page and simply want to prevent nroff + from hyphenating a word at an inappropriate point, do not use this + option, but consult the nroff documentation instead; for instance, + you can put "\%" inside a word to indicate that it may be hyphenated + at that point, or put "\%" at the start of a word to prevent it from + being hyphenated. + + --no-justification, --nj + Normally, nroff will automatically justify text to both margins. + This option disables full justification, leaving justified only to + the left margin, sometimes called "ragged-right" text. + + If you are writing a manual page and simply want to prevent nroff + from justifying certain paragraphs, do not use this option, but con‐ + sult the nroff documentation instead; for instance, you can use the + ".na", ".nf", ".fi", and ".ad" requests to temporarily disable + adjusting and filling. + + -p string, --preprocessor=string + Specify the sequence of preprocessors to run before nroff or + troff/groff. Not all installations will have a full set of pre‐ + processors. Some of the preprocessors and the letters used to des‐ + ignate them are: eqn (e), grap (g), pic (p), tbl (t), vgrind (v), + refer (r). This option overrides the $MANROFFSEQ environment vari‐ + able. zsoelim is always run as the very first preprocessor. + + -t, --troff + Use groff -mandoc to format the manual page to stdout. This option + is not required in conjunction with -H, -T, or -Z. + + -T[device], --troff-device[=device] + This option is used to change groff (or possibly troff's) output to + be suitable for a device other than the default. It implies -t. + Examples (provided with Groff-1.17) include dvi, latin1, ps, utf8, + X75 and X100. + + -H[browser], --html[=browser] + This option will cause groff to produce HTML output, and will dis‐ + play that output in a web browser. The choice of browser is deter‐ + mined by the optional browser argument if one is provided, by the + $BROWSER environment variable, or by a compile-time default if that + is unset (usually lynx). This option implies -t, and will only work + with GNU troff. + + -X[dpi], --gxditview[=dpi] + This option displays the output of groff in a graphical window using + the gxditview program. The dpi (dots per inch) may be 75, 75-12, + 100, or 100-12, defaulting to 75; the -12 variants use a 12-point + base font. This option implies -T with the X75, X75-12, X100, or + X100-12 device respectively. + + -Z, --ditroff + groff will run troff and then use an appropriate post-processor to + produce output suitable for the chosen device. If groff -mandoc is + groff, this option is passed to groff and will suppress the use of a + post-processor. It implies -t. + + Getting help + -?, --help + Print a help message and exit. + + --usage + Print a short usage message and exit. + + -V, --version + Display version information. + +EXIT STATUS + 0 Successful program execution. + + 1 Usage, syntax or configuration file error. + + 2 Operational error. + + 3 A child process returned a non-zero exit status. + + 16 At least one of the pages/files/keywords didn't exist or wasn't + matched. + +ENVIRONMENT + MANPATH + If $MANPATH is set, its value is used as the path to search for man‐ + ual pages. + + MANROFFOPT + The contents of $MANROFFOPT are added to the command line every time + man invokes the formatter (nroff, troff, or groff). + + MANROFFSEQ + If $MANROFFSEQ is set, its value is used to determine the set of + preprocessors to pass each manual page through. The default pre‐ + processor list is system dependent. + + MANSECT + If $MANSECT is set, its value is a colon-delimited list of sections + and it is used to determine which manual sections to search and in + what order. The default is "1 n l 8 3 2 3posix 3pm 3perl 5 4 9 6 + 7", unless overridden by the SECTION directive in /etc/manpath.con‐ + fig. + + MANPAGER, PAGER + If $MANPAGER or $PAGER is set ($MANPAGER is used in preference), its + value is used as the name of the program used to display the manual + page. By default, pager -s is used. + + The value may be a simple command name or a command with arguments, + and may use shell quoting (backslashes, single quotes, or double + quotes). It may not use pipes to connect multiple commands; if you + need that, use a wrapper script, which may take the file to display + either as an argument or on standard input. + + MANLESS + If $MANLESS is set, its value will be used as the default prompt + string for the less pager, as if it had been passed using the -r + option (so any occurrences of the text $MAN_PN will be expanded in + the same way). For example, if you want to set the prompt string + unconditionally to “my prompt string”, set $MANLESS to + ‘-Psmy prompt string’. Using the -r option overrides this environ‐ + ment variable. + + BROWSER + If $BROWSER is set, its value is a colon-delimited list of commands, + each of which in turn is used to try to start a web browser for man + --html. In each command, %s is replaced by a filename containing + the HTML output from groff, %% is replaced by a single percent sign + (%), and %c is replaced by a colon (:). + + SYSTEM If $SYSTEM is set, it will have the same effect as if it had been + specified as the argument to the -m option. + + MANOPT If $MANOPT is set, it will be parsed prior to man's command line and + is expected to be in a similar format. As all of the other man spe‐ + cific environment variables can be expressed as command line + options, and are thus candidates for being included in $MANOPT it is + expected that they will become obsolete. N.B. All spaces that + should be interpreted as part of an option's argument must be + escaped. + + MANWIDTH + If $MANWIDTH is set, its value is used as the line length for which + manual pages should be formatted. If it is not set, manual pages + will be formatted with a line length appropriate to the current ter‐ + minal (using an ioctl(2) if available, the value of $COLUMNS, or + falling back to 80 characters if neither is available). Cat pages + will only be saved when the default formatting can be used, that is + when the terminal line length is between 66 and 80 characters. + + MAN_KEEP_FORMATTING + Normally, when output is not being directed to a terminal (such as + to a file or a pipe), formatting characters are discarded to make it + easier to read the result without special tools. However, if + $MAN_KEEP_FORMATTING is set to any non-empty value, these formatting + characters are retained. This may be useful for wrappers around man + that can interpret formatting characters. + + MAN_KEEP_STDERR + Normally, when output is being directed to a terminal (usually to a + pager), any error output from the command used to produce formatted + versions of manual pages is discarded to avoid interfering with the + pager's display. Programs such as groff often produce relatively + minor error messages about typographical problems such as poor + alignment, which are unsightly and generally confusing when dis‐ + played along with the manual page. However, some users want to see + them anyway, so, if $MAN_KEEP_STDERR is set to any non-empty value, + error output will be displayed as usual. + + LANG, LC_MESSAGES + Depending on system and implementation, either or both of $LANG and + $LC_MESSAGES will be interrogated for the current message locale. + man will display its messages in that locale (if available).
