Hello everyone, Let's talk about pman (PHP man pages) and eventually post their existence online here:
- http://php.net/download-docs.php A few questions: 1. Where should detailed 'how to install pman' be documented? Probably within the PHP manual itself. 2. Can people install it without PEAR? How? 3. How exactly do we manage releases for the pman channel? Hannes wrote a bit about pman here: - http://bjori.blogspot.com/2010/01/unix-manual-pages-for-php-functions.html And pman is at version 1.0.1 currently (from July 2009) so we should start updating it, probably weekly. And speaking of building, the following builds and tests/runs pman: $ cd phpdoc $ php doc-base/configure.php $ phd -f manpage -P PHP -d doc-base/.manual.xml -o phpmanpages $ mv phpmanpages/php-functions phpmanpages/man3 $ man -M ./phpmanpages strpos The script that comes with the pman package (via 'pear install doc.php.net/pman') is like the following: #!/bin/sh MAN=`which man` $MAN -M /the/full/path/to/your/pmanpages/here $* Regards, Philip
