Hello,
Using OpenBSD 5.8-stable.
I used to have the following in /etc/man.conf:
tcl85 /usr/local/lib/tcl/tcl8.5/man/
tcl86 /usr/local/lib/tcl/tcl8.6/man/
Which made it easy to view one or the other by using the section
argument:
man tcl85 Tcl
man tcl86 Tcl
man(1) still appears to be documented to have this functionality:
man [-acfhklw] [-C file] [-I os=name] [-K encoding] [-M path] [-m path]
[-O option=value] [-S subsection] [-s section] [-T output] [-W level]
[section] name ...
^^^^^^^^^
But I see no way of expressing it in the new man.conf or addressing it
in the command line. Here is what I have added according to the new
man.conf(5):
manpath /usr/local/lib/tcl/tcl8.5/man
manpath /usr/local/lib/tcl/tcl8.6/man
But I don't see how to use [section] anymore. man(1) does mention using
[-s section] with n as the section, but that only seems to display the
first match of tcl8.5 and does not allow further granularity (as far as
I can tell).
Have I missed something in the man pages, or what am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Andy
