# manpath.config # # This file is used by the man-db package to configure the man and cat paths. # It is also used to provide a manpath for those without one by examining # their PATH environment variable. For details see the manpath(5) man page. # # Lines beginning with `#' are comments and are ignored. Any combination of # tabs or spaces may be used as `whitespace' separators. # # There are three mappings allowed in this file: # -------------------------------------------------------- # MANDATORY_MANPATH manpath_element # MANPATH_MAP path_element manpath_element # MANDB_MAP global_manpath [relative_catpath] #--------------------------------------------------------- # every automatically generated MANPATH includes these fields # #MANDATORY_MANPATH /usr/src/pvm3/man # MANDATORY_MANPATH /usr/man MANDATORY_MANPATH /usr/share/man MANDATORY_MANPATH /usr/local/share/man #--------------------------------------------------------- # set up PATH to MANPATH mapping # ie. what man tree holds man pages for what binary directory. # # *PATH* -> *MANPATH* # MANPATH_MAP /bin /usr/share/man MANPATH_MAP /usr/bin /usr/share/man MANPATH_MAP /sbin /usr/share/man MANPATH_MAP /usr/sbin /usr/share/man MANPATH_MAP /usr/local/bin /usr/local/man MANPATH_MAP /usr/local/bin /usr/local/share/man MANPATH_MAP /usr/local/sbin /usr/local/man MANPATH_MAP /usr/local/sbin /usr/local/share/man MANPATH_MAP /usr/X11R6/bin /usr/X11R6/man MANPATH_MAP /usr/bin/X11 /usr/X11R6/man MANPATH_MAP /usr/games /usr/share/man MANPATH_MAP /opt/bin /opt/man MANPATH_MAP /opt/sbin /opt/man #--------------------------------------------------------- # For a manpath element to be treated as a system manpath (as most of those # above should normally be), it must be mentioned below. Each line may have # an optional extra string indicating the catpath associated with the # manpath. If no catpath string is used, the catpath will default to the # given manpath. # # You *must* provide all system manpaths, including manpaths for alternate # operating systems, locale specific manpaths, and combinations of both, if # they exist, otherwise the permissions of the user running man/mandb will # be used to manipulate the manual pages. Also, mandb will not initialise # the database cache for any manpaths not mentioned below unless explicitly # requested to do so. # # In a per-user configuration file, this directive only controls the # location of catpaths and the creation of database caches; it has no effect # on privileges. # # Any manpaths that are subdirectories of other manpaths must be mentioned # *before* the containing manpath. E.g. /usr/man/preformat must be listed # before /usr/man. # # *MANPATH* -> *CATPATH* # MANDB_MAP /usr/man /var/cache/man/fsstnd MANDB_MAP /usr/share/man /var/cache/man MANDB_MAP /usr/local/man /var/cache/man/oldlocal MANDB_MAP /usr/local/share/man /var/cache/man/local MANDB_MAP /usr/X11R6/man /var/cache/man/X11R6 MANDB_MAP /opt/man /var/cache/man/opt MANDB_MAP /snap/man /var/cache/man/snap # #--------------------------------------------------------- # Program definitions.

Multiple SECTION # directives may be given for clarity, and will be concatenated together in # the expected way. # If a particular extension is not in this list (say, 1mh), it will be # displayed with the rest of the section it belongs to. The effect of this # is that you only need to explicitly list extensions if you want to force a # particular order. Sections with extensions should usually be adjacent to # their main section (e.g. "1 1mh 8 ..."). # SECTION 1 n l 8 3 2 3posix 3pm 3perl 3am 5 4 9 6 7 # #--------------------------------------------------------- # Range of terminal widths permitted when displaying cat pages.
