NAME

uman — Uninstalled manual page reader

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

The uman script formats and displays uninstalled manual pages, without using the system manual. The search-string argument should be a manual page title (or in the case of library documentation, the name of a function, structure or class).

The UMANPATH environment variable should be defined as a comma-separated list of directories containing manual page source files such as foo.1, and optionally BSDBuild-generated .manlink.mk files. uman will search the directories recursively.

If a match is found, uman formats and feeds the resulting manual page to the system PAGER (or the default, less(1)).
