FAQ - a set of frequently-asked questions about Bash with answers
|
|
article.ms - an article I wrote about bash for The Linux Journal
|
|
bash.1 - the bash man page
|
|
builtins.1 - a man page that documents the builtins, extracted from bash.1
|
|
features.texi - the `bash reference manual'
|
|
features.info - the `bash reference manual' processed by `makeinfo'
|
|
readline.3 - the readline man page
|
|
|
|
The `.ps' files are postscript versions of the above. The `.html'
|
|
files are HTML versions of the man page and reference manual. The
|
|
`.0' files are formatted manual pages. The `.txt' versions are
|
|
ascii -- the output of `groff -Tascii'.
|
|
|
|
The rest of this file explains how to use the `builtins.1' man page.
|
|
|
|
For each command in the list of builtins create a file in man/man1 called:
|
|
|
|
${command}.1
|
|
|
|
eg.
|
|
for.1
|
|
type.1
|
|
alias.1
|
|
etc.
|
|
|
|
All these files are identical as follows:
|
|
|
|
jaws@jaws(264)$ cat alias.1
|
|
.so man1/builtins.1
|
|
jaws@jaws(265)$
|
|
|
|
Make sure you adjust the .so line in builtins.1 to reflect where you
|
|
put it.
