MANWHERE(VI)  −  PWB/UNIX 8/29/77

NAME

manwhere − locate specific commands in the manual

SYNOPSIS

manwhere [ − ] name ... 

DESCRIPTION

Manwhere will look for each of the specified commands in the on-line manual.  If it exists in any section of the manual, the number of that section will be printed.  If it is not in any section of the manual, manwhere will so indicate.  The optional − causes only undocumented commands to be listed.  It can be used, e.g.: chdir /bin
manwhere − * to see that a set of commands are all documented. If a command is documented in an as yet uninstalled section of the manual, it will be preceded by a string indicating the location of this documentation. For Cory UNIX, the character ‘P’ indicates that documentation is in preparation for the section in question.
