There's not a nice simple command (afaik), but you can do something
along the lines of (in a mix of LC and shell :-)
echo $PATH > tPaths
set the itemdel to ":"
repeat for each item tFolder in tPaths
set the defaultfolder to tFolder
put the files after tAll
end repeat
doSomeCleverFiltering tAll -- that's a library function you
are assumed to have already written :-)
doSomethingToAddBuiltins tAll -- ditto
-- Alex.

Thanks pretty useful if you know already what the command is you need
help with. Looks like you are getting the man pages via a shell call
yourself.
What would make this marketable is if there was a way to list all the
shell commands available to the system and present them to the user
in a list, have the user be able to click on a shell command and have
the man page load, and then be able to insert the command into a rev
script with the proper LiveCode syntax. I would pay money for that!

That was just my reaction to the stack -- great if you know what
you're doing already, but you have to know shell commands. (I dropped
it into my Plugins folder anyway....)
Is there a shell command to get all the shell commands on the
currently running system? If so, it should be a snap to expand the
stack accordingly.

Hi folks,
I just uploaded a new version of the Shell() Command Help plugin.
New features:
- Search for words in the displayed help text.
- Print the displayed help text.
- Use arrow keys to retrieve previous commands (like the LC message
box).
Enjoy!
