  • RE: Manpages in terminal?

    Thank you all for your reply; I'm so impressed with Touch. Definitely a keeper.

    @zubozrout said in Manpages in terminal?:

    Hi,
    you can always Google man pages for specific things when on the go, even narrow it down by distro and its version when searching.

    I had just spent about 45min searching for a ubuntu-app-launcher man page (saw and used the command in vid) before posting this; not convenient.

    @hummlbach said in Manpages in terminal?:

    If you want to have man pages in the terminal (which absolutely makes sense when thinking of convergence!) you could put them and man into ~/man respectively ~/bin manually and set the environment variable MANPATH or INFOPATH accordingly. Or make a click package for it which installs it to /opt/click.ubuntu.com/man.yourname/ and set PATH=/opt/click.ubuntu.com/man.yourname/current/bin and MANPATH=/opt/click.ubuntu.com/man.yourname/current/man or whatever in ~/.profile... That would be cool, I would install it too! 😉

    @dobey said in Manpages in terminal?:

    @hummlbach Or, simply install them in libertine and access them inside the container.

    Yep, definitely going for the computer in a pocket; I'm absolutely going to implement 'man' with or without the continuation of the precedent :0] Thank goodness this OS makes that possible. Thanks for the tips.

    Thank you all for your time! Good to meet you.
