MAN(I) 8/20/73 MAN(I)
NAME
man - run off section of UNIX manual
SYNOPSIS
man [ section ] [ title ... ]
DESCRIPTION
Man is a shell command file that will locate and run off one
or more sections of this manual. Section is the section
number of the manual, as an Arabic not Roman numeral, and is
optional. Title is one or more section names; these names
bear a generally simple relation to the page captions in the
manual. If the section is missing, 1 is assumed. For
example,
man man
would reproduce this page.
FILES
/usr/man/man?/*
BUGS
The manual is supposed to be reproducible either on the
phototypesetter or on a typewriter. However, on a
typewriter some information is necessarily lost.
