23 Using the man ioslave you are able to read the man pages installed
24 on your system. It is easy to use:
25 </para>
27 <variablelist>
28 <varlistentry>
29 <term><userinput><command>man:</command></userinput></term>
30 <listitem>
31 <para>See the sections of the manual, click to find the rest.
32 </para>
33 </listitem>
34 </varlistentry>
35 <varlistentry>
36 <term><userinput><command>man:</command><replaceable>fopen</replaceable></userinput></term>
37 <listitem>
38 <para>See the man page of <command>fopen</command>.
39 </para>

67 that you want to see.</para></note>
69 <para>
70 There is also a shortcut: <userinput><command>#fopen</command></userinput>,
71 which has the same effect as above.
72 </para>
74 <para>
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>.
80 </para>
82 <para>
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
86 &HTML; format.
