linux:bash_custom_man_pages
A few custom man pages easy to maintain and expand
Instalation
cd to the directory where you would like the manpages to reside.
cd /home/myuser\ wget https://wiki.x-files.dk/custom-manpages.tar.gz tar zxvfp custom-manpages.tar.gz cd custom-manpages sudo ./xfman-install
How to setup
Run ./xman once. A symlink wil be created in /usr/local/bin and the path will be set in the xfman script. Thats it.
Usage:
xfman manpage
Examples:
xfman awk
xfman no input given
outputs current man pages available
Uninstallation:
cd /home/myuser/custom-manpages sudo ./xfman-uninstall
Notes:
In order to expand with your own man pages simply create a file in the custom-manpages directory. Once saved the new file will be included in the path automatically and ready to view i.e use no further actions required.
