fman   [plain text]

#! /bin/bash
#
# original from:
# fman: new man program
# @(#) fman.ksh 1.5 94/04/16
# 91/07/03 john h. dubois iii (john@armory.com)
# 91/07/11 made it unpack man pages if neccessary
# 91/07/16 fixed test for whether man file pattern was expanded
# 92/01/21 made it read /etc/default/man to get section order,
#          and only display the first section found.
# 92/02/06 changed name to fman
# 92/02/07 fixed bug in notfound
# 92/02/13 incorporated changes from DOS version
# 92/03/11 changed to use MANPATH from environment if set,
#          and search all directories given in MANPATH
# 92/03/15 exec pager or man w/o forking
# 92/05/31 try using index if one exists
# 92/10/01 Added "See also <other sections>"
# 92/10/18 If PAGER is less, search for name of man page to make it easier
#          to find information in man pages for multiple items
# 92/11/11 Make it work for compressed files not listed in index;
#          deal with man pages listed in index that don't exist.
# 93/03/30 Fixed bug in MANPATH processing
# 93/06/17 Include paths in "See also:" message if they would be needed
#          to get to a man page.  Allow MANPATH spec on command line.
# 93/07/09 Added -h and -e options.
# 94/04/16 Added x option.
#
