BESKRIVELSE
man is the system's manual pager. Each
page argument given to
man is normally the name of a program, utility or function. The
manual page associated with each of these arguments is then found and
displayed. A
section, if provided, will direct
man to look only in
that
section of the manual. The default action is to search in all of
the available
sections following a pre-defined order (see
DEFAULTS),
and to show only the first
page found, even if
page exists in several
sections.

The command or function illustration is a pattern that should match all
possible invocations. In some cases it is advisable to illustrate several
exclusive invocations as is shown in the SYNOPSIS section of this manual
page.
EKSEMPLER
- man ls
-
Vis manualsiden for punkt (program) ls.
- man man.7
-
Display the manual page for macro package man from section 7. (This
is an alternative spelling of "man 7 man".)
- man 'man(7)'
-
Display the manual page for macro package man from section 7. (This
is another alternative spelling of "man 7 man". It may be more
convenient when copying and pasting cross-references to manual pages. Note
that the parentheses must normally be quoted to protect them from the
shell.)
- man -a intro
-
Vis, i rækkefølge, alle de tilgængelige intro-manualsider indeholdt i
denne manual. Det er muligt at afbryde mellem successive visninger eller
udelade nogle af dem.
- man -t bash | lpr -Pps
-
Format the manual page for bash into the default troff or groff
format and pipe it to the printer named ps. The default output for
groff is usually PostScript. man --help should advise as to which
processor is bound to the -t option.
- man -l -Tdvi ./foo.1x.gz > ./foo.1x.dvi
-
This command will decompress and format the nroff source manual page
./foo.1x.gz into a device independent (dvi) file. The redirection is
necessary as the -T flag causes output to be directed to stdout with
no pager. The output could be viewed with a program such as xdvi or
further processed into PostScript using a program such as dvips.
- man -k printf
-
Søg i de korte beskrivelser og navnene på manualsiderne for nøgleordet
printf som regulært udtryk. Udskriv resultaterne. Svarer til
apropos printf.
- man -f smail
-
Slå manualsiderne refereret af smail op og vis den korte beskrivelse for
det fundne resultat. Svarer til whatis smail.
OVERBLIK
Mange tilvalg er tilgængelige for
man for at give så meget
fleksibilitet som muligt for slutbrugeren. Ændringer kan ske for søgestien,
afsnitrækkefølge, uddataprocessor og anden opførsel og operationer
detaljeret nedenfor.
If set, various environment variables are interrogated to determine the
operation of man. It is possible to set the "catch-all" variable
$MANOPT to any string in command line format, with the exception that any
spaces used as part of an option's argument must be escaped (preceded by a
backslash). man will parse $MANOPT prior to parsing its own command
line. Those options requiring an argument will be overridden by the same
options found on the command line. To reset all of the options set in
$MANOPT, -D can be specified as the initial command line option. This
will allow man to "forget" about the options specified in $MANOPT,
although they must still have been valid.
Manual pages are normally stored in nroff(1) format under a directory
such as /usr/share/man. In some installations, there may also be
preformatted cat pages to improve performance. See manpath(5) for
details of where these files are stored.
This package supports manual pages in multiple languages, controlled by your
locale. If your system did not set this up for you automatically, then
you may need to set $LC_MESSAGES, $LANG, or another system-dependent
environment variable to indicate your preferred locale, usually specified in
the POSIX format:
<language>[_<territory>[.<tegnsæt>[,<version>]]]
Hvis den ønskede side er tilgængelig i dit sprog, vil den blive vist i
stedet for standardsiden (normalt amerikansk-engelsk).
If you find that the translations supplied with this package are not
available in your native language and you would like to supply them, please
contact the maintainer who will be coordinating such activity.
Individual manual pages are normally written and maintained by the
maintainers of the program, function, or other topic that they document, and
are not included with this package. If you find that a manual page is
missing or inadequate, please report that to the maintainers of the package
in question.
For information om andre funktioner og udvidelser tilgængelige med denne
manualtekstviser, så læs venligst dokumenterne leveret med denne pakke.
STANDARDER
The order of sections to search may be overridden by the environment
variable $
MANSECT or by the
SECTION directive in
/etc/man_db.conf. By default it is as follows:
-
1 1p 8 2 3 3p 3pm 4 5 6 7 9 0p n l p o 1x 2x 3x 4x 5x 6x 7x 8x
The formatted manual page is displayed using a pager. This can be
specified in a number of ways, or else will fall back to a default (see
option -P for details).
Filtrene tydes vis et antal metoder. Først tydes kommandolinjetilvalget
-p eller miljøvariablen $MANROFFSEQ. Hvis -p ikke blev brugt og
miljøvariablen ikke var angivet, så fortolkes opstartslinjen for nroff-filen
for en forbrænderstrenge. For at indeholde en gyldig forbrænderstreng, så
skal den første linje ligne
'\" <string>
Hvor streng kan være enhver kombination af bogstaver beskrevet af
tilvalget -p nedenfor.
Hvis ingen af de ovenstående metoder giver filterinformation, så bruges et
standardsæt.
A formatting pipeline is formed from the filters and the primary formatter
(nroff or [tg]roff with -t) and executed. Alternatively, if an
executable program mandb_nfmt (or mandb_tfmt with -t) exists in
the man tree root, it is executed instead. It gets passed the manual source
file, the preprocessor string, and optionally the device specified with
-T or -E as arguments.
TILVALG
Non-argument options that are duplicated either on the command line, in
$
MANOPT, or both, are not harmful. For options that require an argument,
each duplication will override the previous argument value.
Generelle tilvalg
- -C fil, --config-file=fil
-
Brug denne brugerkonfigurationsfil frem for standarden ~/.manpath.
- -d, --debug
-
Vis fejlsøgningsinformation.
- -D, --default
-
Dette tilvalg udstedes normalt som det første tilvalg og nulstiller
man's opførsel til standarden. Dets brug er at nulstille disse tilvalg,
som måske er angivet i $MANOPT. Ethvert tilvalg som følger -D vil have
deres normale effekt.
- --warnings[=advarsler/]
-
Aktiver advarsler fra groff. Dette kan gøres for at udføre
sanitetskontrol på kildetekst for manualsider. advarsler er en
kommaadskilt liste med advarselsnavne; hvis den ikke er angivet, er
standarden »mac«. Se "Warnings" node i info groff for en liste over
tilgængelige advarselsnavne.
Hovedtilstande for operation
- -f, --whatis
-
Svarer til whatis. Vis en kort beskrivelse fra manualsiden, hvis
tilgængelig. Se whatis(1) for detaljer.
- -k, --apropos
-
Svarer til apropos. Søg i de korte manualsidebeskrivelser for nøgleord
og vis alle match. Se apropos(1) for detaljer.
- -K, --global-apropos
-
Search for text in all manual pages. This is a brute-force search, and is
likely to take some time; if you can, you should specify a section to reduce
the number of pages that need to be searched. Search terms may be simple
strings (the default), or regular expressions if the --regex option is
used.
-
Note that this searches the sources of the manual pages, not the rendered
text, and so may include false positives due to things like comments in
source files. Searching the rendered text would be much slower.
- -l, --local-file
-
Activate "local" mode. Format and display local manual files instead of
searching through the system's manual collection. Each manual page argument
will be interpreted as an nroff source file in the correct format. No cat
file is produced. If '-' is listed as one of the arguments, input will be
taken from stdin. When this option is not used, and man fails to find the
page required, before displaying the error message, it attempts to act as if
this option was supplied, using the name as a filename and looking for an
exact match.
- -w, --where, --path, --location
-
Don't actually display the manual page, but do print the location of the
source nroff file that would be formatted. If the -a option is also
used, then print the locations of all source files that match the search
criteria.
- -W, --where-cat, --location-cat
-
Don't actually display the manual page, but do print the location of the
preformatted cat file that would be displayed. If the -a option is also
used, then print the locations of all preformatted cat files that match the
search criteria.
-
If -w and -W are both used, then print both source file and cat file
separated by a space. If all of -w, -W, and -a are used, then do
this for each possible match.
- -c, --catman
-
Dette tilvalg er ikke for generel brug og bør kun bruges af programmet
catman.
- -R kodning, --recode=kodning
-
Instead of formatting the manual page in the usual way, output its source
converted to the specified encoding. If you already know the encoding of
the source file, you can also use manconv(1) directly. However, this
option allows you to convert several manual pages to a single encoding
without having to explicitly state the encoding of each, provided that they
were already installed in a structure similar to a manual page hierarchy.
-
Consider using man-recode(1) instead for converting multiple manual
pages, since it has an interface designed for bulk conversion and so can be
much faster.
Finde manualsider
- -L sprog, --locale=sprog
-
man vil normalt bestemme dit lokale sprog med et kald til
C-funktionen setlocale(3), som undersøger diverse miljøvariabler,
muligvis inklusive $LC_MESSAGES og $LANG. For midlertidigt at
overskrive den afslørede værdi bruges dette tilvalg til at supplere en
sprog-streng direkte til man. Bemærk at det ikke vil træde i
kraft før søgningen efter sider rent faktisk begynder. Resultatet såsom
hjælpebeskeden vil altid blive vist i det oprindeligt bestemte sprog.
- -m system[,...], --systems=system[,...]
-
Hvis dette system har adgang til andre operativsystemers manualsider, så kan
de tilgås med dette tilvalg. For at søge efter en manualside fra NytOS's
manualsidesamling bruges tilvalget -m NytOS.
Det angivet system kan være en kombination af kommaadskilt
operativsystemnavne. For at inkludere en søgning i manualsiderne for
udgangspunktets operativsystem inkluderes systemnavnet man i
argumentstrengen. Dette tilvalg vil overskrive miljøvariablen $SYSTEM.
- -M sti, --manpath=sti
-
Angiv en alternativ manualsti. Som standard bruger man
manpath-afledt kode til at bestemme søgestien. Dette tilvalg
overskriver miljøvariablen $MANPATH og medfører at tilvalget -m
ignoreres.
A path specified as a manpath must be the root of a manual page hierarchy
structured into sections as described in the man-db manual (under "The
manual page system"). To view manual pages outside such hierarchies, see
the -l option.
- -S list/, -s list/, --sections=list/
-
The given list is a colon- or comma-separated list of sections, used to
determine which manual sections to search and in what order. This option
overrides the $MANSECT environment variable. (The -s spelling is for
compatibility with System V.)
- -e sub-extension, --extension=sub-extension
-
Some systems incorporate large packages of manual pages, such as those that
accompany the Tcl package, into the main manual page hierarchy. To get
around the problem of having two manual pages with the same name such as
exit(3), the Tcl pages were usually all assigned to section l. As
this is unfortunate, it is now possible to put the pages in the correct
section, and to assign a specific "extension" to them, in this case,
exit(3tcl). Under normal operation, man will display exit(3) in
preference to exit(3tcl). To negotiate this situation and to avoid
having to know which section the page you require resides in, it is now
possible to give man a sub-extension string indicating which package
the page must belong to. Using the above example, supplying the option
-e tcl to man will restrict the search to pages having an extension
of *tcl.
- -i, --ignore-case
-
Ignore case when searching for manual pages. This is the default.
- -I, --match-case
-
Search for manual pages case-sensitively.
- --regex
-
Show all pages with any part of either their names or their descriptions
matching each page argument as a regular expression, as with
apropos(1). Since there is usually no reasonable way to pick a "best"
page when searching for a regular expression, this option implies -a.
- --wildcard
-
Show all pages with any part of either their names or their descriptions
matching each page argument using shell-style wildcards, as with
apropos(1) --wildcard. The page argument must match the entire
name or description, or match on word boundaries in the description. Since
there is usually no reasonable way to pick a "best" page when searching for
a wildcard, this option implies -a.
- --names-only
-
Hvis enten tilvalget --regex eller --wildcard bruges, match kun
sidenavne, ikke sidebeskrivelser, som med whatis(1). Ellers, ingen
effekt.
- -a, --all
-
Som standard vil man afslutte efter visning af den mest egnet
manualside den finder. Brug af dette tilvalg tvinger man til at vise
alle manualsiderne med navne som matcher søgekriteriet.
- -u, --update
-
This option causes man to update its database caches of installed
manual pages. This is only needed in rare situations, and it is normally
better to run mandb(8) instead.
- --no-subpages
-
By default, man will try to interpret pairs of manual page names given
on the command line as equivalent to a single manual page name containing a
hyphen or an underscore. This supports the common pattern of programs that
implement a number of subcommands, allowing them to provide manual pages for
each that can be accessed using similar syntax as would be used to invoke
the subcommands themselves. For example:
$ man -aw git diff /usr/share/man/man1/git-diff.1.gz
For at deaktivere denne opførsel så brug tilvalget --no-subpages.
$ man -aw --no-subpages git diff /usr/share/man/man1/git.1.gz /usr/share/man/man3/Git.3pm.gz /usr/share/man/man1/diff.1.gz
Kontrol af formateret resultat
- -P tekstviser, --pager=tekstviser
-
Specify which output pager to use. By default, man uses less,
falling back to cat if less is not found or is not executable.
This option overrides the $MANPAGER environment variable, which in turn
overrides the $PAGER environment variable. It is not used in conjunction
with -f or -k.
The value may be a simple command name or a command with arguments, and may
use shell quoting (backslashes, single quotes, or double quotes). It may
not use pipes to connect multiple commands; if you need that, use a wrapper
script, which may take the file to display either as an argument or on
standard input.
- -r prompt, --prompt=prompt
-
Hvis en nylig version af less bruges som tekstsøger, så vil man
forsøge at angive den på sin prompt og vælge nogle fornuftige
tilvalg. Standardprompten ser således ud
Manualside navn(sec) line x
hvor navn benvæner manualsidenavnet, sektion benævner sektionen den
blev fundet under og x det nuværende linjenummer. Dette opnås ved at
bruge miljøvariablen $LESS.
Supplying -r with a string will override this default. The string may
contain the text $MAN_PN which will be expanded to the name of the
current manual page and its section name surrounded by "(" and ")". The
string used to produce the default could be expressed as
\ Manual\ page\ \$MAN_PN\ ?ltline\ %lt?L/%L.:
byte\ %bB?s/%s..?\ (END):?pB\ %pB\\%..
(tryk h for hjælp eller q for afslut)
It is broken into three lines here for the sake of readability only. For
its meaning see the less(1) manual page. The prompt string is first
evaluated by the shell. All double quotes, back-quotes and backslashes in
the prompt must be escaped by a preceding backslash. The prompt string may
end in an escaped $ which may be followed by further options for less. By
default man sets the -ix8 options.
The $MANLESS environment variable described below may be used to set a
default prompt string if none is supplied on the command line.
- -7, --ascii
-
When viewing a pure ascii(7) manual page on a 7 bit terminal or terminal
emulator, some characters may not display correctly when using the
latin1(7) device description with GNU nroff. This option allows
pure ascii manual pages to be displayed in ascii with the latin1
device. It will not translate any latin1 text. The following table
shows the translations performed: some parts of it may only be displayed
properly when using GNU nroff's latin1(7) device.
Beskrivelse | Oktal | latin1 | ascii
|
|
continuation hyphen
| 255 | | -
|
bullet (middle dot)
| 267 | • | o
|
acute accent
| 264 | ´ | '
|
multiplication sign
| 327 | × | x
|
If the latin1 column displays correctly, your terminal may be set up for
latin1 characters and this option is not necessary. If the latin1 and
ascii columns are identical, you are reading this page using this option
or man did not format this page using the latin1 device
description. If the latin1 column is missing or corrupt, you may need to
view manual pages with this option.
This option is ignored when using options -t, -H, -T, or -Z and
may be useless for nroff other than GNU's.
- -E kodning, --encoding=kodning
-
Generate output for a character encoding other than the default. For
backward compatibility, encoding may be an nroff device such as
ascii, latin1, or utf8 as well as a true character encoding such as
UTF-8.
- --no-hyphenation, --nh
-
Normally, nroff will automatically hyphenate text at line breaks even in
words that do not contain hyphens, if it is necessary to do so to lay out
words on a line without excessive spacing. This option disables automatic
hyphenation, so words will only be hyphenated if they already contain
hyphens.
If you are writing a manual page and simply want to prevent nroff from
hyphenating a word at an inappropriate point, do not use this option, but
consult the nroff documentation instead; for instance, you can put "\%"
inside a word to indicate that it may be hyphenated at that point, or put
"\%" at the start of a word to prevent it from being hyphenated.
- --no-justification, --nj
-
Normally, nroff will automatically justify text to both margins. This
option disables full justification, leaving justified only to the left
margin, sometimes called "ragged-right" text.
If you are writing a manual page and simply want to prevent nroff from
justifying certain paragraphs, do not use this option, but consult the
nroff documentation instead; for instance, you can use the ".na", ".nf",
".fi", and ".ad" requests to temporarily disable adjusting and filling.
- -p streng, --preprocessor=streng
-
Specify the sequence of preprocessors to run before nroff or
troff/groff. Not all installations will have a full set of
preprocessors. Some of the preprocessors and the letters used to designate
them are: eqn (e), grap (g), pic (p), tbl (t),
vgrind (v), refer (r). This option overrides the $MANROFFSEQ
environment variable. zsoelim is always run as the very first
preprocessor.
- -t, --troff
-
Brug groff -mandoc til at formatere manualsiden til standardud. Tilvalget er
ikke krævet sammen med -H, -T eller -Z.
- -T[enhed/], --troff-device[=enhed/]
-
Denne indstilling bruges til at ændre groff-resultater (eller muligvis
troff'er), så de er egnet for en enhed udover standarden. -t er
underforstået. Eksempler (indeholdt med Groff-1.17) inkluderer dvi,
latin1, ps, utf8, X75 og X100.
- -H[browser/], --html[=browser/]
-
This option will cause groff to produce HTML output, and will display
that output in a web browser. The choice of browser is determined by the
optional browser argument if one is provided, by the $BROWSER
environment variable, or by a compile-time default if that is unset (usually
lynx). This option implies -t, and will only work with GNU
troff.
- -X[dpi/], --gxditview[=dpi/]
-
This option displays the output of groff in a graphical window using the
gxditview program. The dpi (dots per inch) may be 75, 75-12, 100, or
100-12, defaulting to 75; the -12 variants use a 12-point base font. This
option implies -T with the X75, X75-12, X100, or X100-12 device
respectively.
- -Z, --ditroff
-
groff vil køre troff og så bruge en passende efterbrænder til at
fremstille et resultat egnet for den valgte enhed. Hvis groff -mandoc er
groff, så vil dette tilvalg sendes til groff og vil undertrykke brugen
af en efterbrænder. -t er underforstået.

MILJØ
- MANPATH
-
If $MANPATH is set, its value is used as the path to search for manual
pages.
- MANROFFOPT
-
Every time man invokes the formatter (nroff, troff, or groff),
it adds the contents of $MANROFFOPT to the formatter's command line.
- MANROFFSEQ
-
If $MANROFFSEQ is set, its value is used to determine the set of
preprocessors to pass each manual page through. The default preprocessor
list is system dependent.
- MANSECT
-
If $MANSECT is set, its value is a colon-delimited list of sections and
it is used to determine which manual sections to search and in what order.
The default is "1 1p 8 2 3 3p 3pm 4 5 6 7 9 0p n l p o 1x 2x 3x 4x 5x 6x 7x 8x", unless overridden by the SECTION directive
in /etc/man_db.conf.
- MANPAGER, PAGER
-
If $MANPAGER or $PAGER is set ($MANPAGER is used in preference),
its value is used as the name of the program used to display the manual
page. By default, less is used, falling back to cat if
less is not found or is not executable.
The value may be a simple command name or a command with arguments, and may
use shell quoting (backslashes, single quotes, or double quotes). It may
not use pipes to connect multiple commands; if you need that, use a wrapper
script, which may take the file to display either as an argument or on
standard input.
- MANLESS
-
If $MANLESS is set, its value will be used as the default prompt string
for the less pager, as if it had been passed using the -r option (so
any occurrences of the text $MAN_PN will be expanded in the same way).
For example, if you want to set the prompt string unconditionally to "my
prompt string", set $MANLESS to '-Psmy prompt string'.
Using the -r option overrides this environment variable.
- BROWSER
-
If $BROWSER is set, its value is a colon-delimited list of commands, each
of which in turn is used to try to start a web browser for man
--html. In each command, %s is replaced by a filename containing the
HTML output from groff, %% is replaced by a single percent sign (%),
and %c is replaced by a colon (:).
- SYSTEM
-
Hvis $SYSTEM er angivet, vil det have den samme effekt, som hvis den var
blevet angivet som argument for tilvalget -m.
- MANOPT
-
If $MANOPT is set, it will be parsed prior to man's command line and
is expected to be in a similar format. As all of the other man
specific environment variables can be expressed as command line options, and
are thus candidates for being included in $MANOPT it is expected that
they will become obsolete. N.B. All spaces that should be interpreted as
part of an option's argument must be escaped.
- MANWIDTH
-
If $MANWIDTH is set, its value is used as the line length for which
manual pages should be formatted. If it is not set, manual pages will be
formatted with a line length appropriate to the current terminal (using the
value of $COLUMNS, and ioctl(2) if available, or falling back to 80
characters if neither is available). Cat pages will only be saved when the
default formatting can be used, that is when the terminal line length is
between 66 and 80 characters.
- MAN_KEEP_FORMATTING
-
Normally, when output is not being directed to a terminal (such as to a file
or a pipe), formatting characters are discarded to make it easier to read
the result without special tools. However, if $MAN_KEEP_FORMATTING is
set to any non-empty value, these formatting characters are retained. This
may be useful for wrappers around man that can interpret formatting
characters.
- MAN_KEEP_STDERR
-
Normally, when output is being directed to a terminal (usually to a pager),
any error output from the command used to produce formatted versions of
manual pages is discarded to avoid interfering with the pager's display.
Programs such as groff often produce relatively minor error messages
about typographical problems such as poor alignment, which are unsightly and
generally confusing when displayed along with the manual page. However,
some users want to see them anyway, so, if $MAN_KEEP_STDERR is set to any
non-empty value, error output will be displayed as usual.
- LANG, LC_MESSAGES
-
Afhængig af system og implementering, vil enten en af eller begge $LANG
og $LC_MESSAGES blive spurgt for den aktuelle beskeds sprog. man
vil vise dets beskeder i det sprog (hvis tilgængeligt). Se setlocale(3)
for mere udførlige detaljer.
