The Mac version is as Unixfied as it gets. But
the man pages for what you're looking for may
not exist in your default man path (in a
terminal: echo $MANPATH). Then execute man man,
and man manpath. Use find in a terminal to find
all your man page locations. Spotlight won't
work.
There is no important difference between the way
clamAV runs in a Mac vs Linux. One important
point has to do with the Mac file system which
by default is case weird. It treats upper and
lower case filenames oddly compared to Unix and
Linux systems, and even within the Mac,
depending on whether you are using command line
tools or GUI tools.
I'm running ClamAV on a Mac, Sun Sparc with
Solaris, and Linux. I'll soon have it running on
a Mac Mini Server though on that system the case
issues will be corrected. Anyway - it works fine
on a Mac.
Actually, Dennis, it comes preinstalled on Mini
Server it just located in /usr/bin and its
version 0.95.2
