23 Using the man ioslave you are able to read the man pages installed
24 on your system. It is easy to use:
29 <term><userinput><command>man:
</command></userinput></term>
31 <para>See the sections of the manual, click to find the rest.
36 <term><userinput><command>man:
</command><replaceable>fopen
</replaceable></userinput></term>
38 <para>See the man page of
<command>fopen
</command>.
43 <term><userinput><command>man:
</command><replaceable>fopen(
3)
</replaceable></userinput></term>
45 <para>See the man page of
<command>fopen
</command> in section
3.
50 <term><userinput><command>man:
</command><replaceable>(
3)
</replaceable></userinput></term>
52 <para>See the index of section
3.
57 <term><userinput><command>man:
</command>intro
<replaceable>(
3)
</replaceable></userinput></term>
59 <para>See the introduction of section
3.
65 <note><para>If there are more than one man page of the name that you
66 have entered, you will get a list where you can choose the man page
67 that you want to see.
</para></note>
70 There is also a shortcut:
<userinput><command>#fopen
</command></userinput>,
71 which has the same effect as above.
75 If you do not find all your man pages, adjust the configuration file
76 <filename>/etc/manpath.config
</filename>
77 (or a file of a similar name depending on your distribution)
78 or adjust the environment variables
79 <envar>MANPATH
</envar> and
<envar>MANSECT
</envar>.
83 As with any other
&kde; ioslave, it is possible to enter a
&URL;, like
84 <userinput><command>man:socket
</command></userinput> in
<emphasis>any
</emphasis>
85 &kde; application. Try it in
&kwrite; and you will see the man page in
