Short: UNIX man command. Recognizes GUIDE files
Type: os20/cli
Uploader: kai@iske.adsp.sub.org
Author: kai@iske.adsp.sub.org
This is a simple MAN command, known from UNIX systems. The advantage is, that
it recognizes .guide files to be AmigaGuide© documents. MAN then uses a
different viewer in order to display the AmigaGuide© document. You may
configure MAN using environment variables. Configuration can be done for :
- Directories, where to look for man pages (.doc|.man|.guide)
- ASCII Textviewer to use
- AmigaGuide© Textviewer to use
PUBLIC DOMAIN, includes source...
Fixed since Version 1.5 (Yep, even a small program may have bugs ;)
- Added MANRMEXT, MANAGEXT and MANNOVIEW options,
which may be used for extensibility of MAN
(Somehow suggested by : Michael 'Mick' Hohmann)
Fixed since Version 1.4 (Yep, even a small program may have bugs ;)
- Referenced free memory area
Fixed since Version 1.3 (Yep, even a small program may have bugs ;)
- DOS-Library wasn`t closed
Fixed since Version 1.2 (Yep, even a small program may have bugs ;)
- Added CTRL-C checking
- Recompiled using SAS 6.50
- Reduced stack usage
- Reduced executable size
Fixed since Version 1.1 (Yep, even a small program may have bugs ;)
- One couldn`t type "Man man" to get the documentation of man
loaded, just because of the fact that I took "MAN" as a keyword
for the template...
Fixed since Version 1.0 (Yep, even a small program may have bugs ;)
- Accidentially called Exit() instead of exit(), which
prevented the program to pass the cleanup code of SAS.
So a lock to the directory was kept and the shell could
never been left.............
