- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto
- Fix for default mtree style
- Update libelf
- Importing libexecinfo
- Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr
- build.sh: Replace params with show-params.
This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same
way, while a new target named params has been added. This new
target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of
printing it on the console.
- Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org)
get getservbyport() out of the inner loop

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility queries manual page databases generated by
|
|
.Xr mandocdb 8 ,
|
|
evaluating on
|
|
.Ar expression
|
|
for each file in each database.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
By default,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
searches for
|
|
.Xr mandocdb 8
|
|
databases in the default paths stipulated by
|
|
.Xr man 1 ,
|
|
parses terms as case-sensitive regular expressions
|
|
over manual names and descriptions.
|
|
Multiple terms imply pairwise
|
|
.Fl o .
|
|
If standard output is a TTY, a result may be selected from a list and
|
|
its manual displayed with the pager.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Its arguments are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It Fl C Ar file
|
|
Specify an alternative configuration
|
|
.Ar file
|
|
in
|
|
.Xr man.conf 5
|
|
format.
|
|
.It Fl M Ar manpath
|
|
Use the colon-separated path instead of the default list of paths
|
|
searched for
|
|
.Xr mandocdb 8
|
|
databases.
|
|
Invalid paths, or paths without manual databases, are ignored.
|
|
.It Fl m Ar manpath
|
|
Prepend the colon-separated paths to the list of paths searched
|
|
for
|
|
.Xr mandocdb 8
|
|
databases.
|
|
Invalid paths, or paths without manual databases, are ignored.
|
|
.It Fl S Ar arch
|
|
Search only for a particular architecture.
|
|
.It Fl s Ar cat
|
|
Search only for a manual section.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr man 1
|
|
for a listing of manual sections.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
An
|
|
.Ar expression
|
|
consists of search terms joined by logical operators
|
|
.Fl a
|
|
.Pq and
|
|
and
|
|
.Fl o
|
|
.Pq or .
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl a
|
|
operator has precedence over
|
|
.Fl o
|
|
and both are evaluated left-to-right.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It \&( Ar expr No \&)
|
|
True if the subexpression
|
|
.Ar expr
|
|
is true.
|
|
.It Ar expr1 Fl a Ar expr2
|
|
True if both
|
|
.Ar expr1
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar expr2
|
|
are true (logical
|
|
.Qq and ) .
|
|
.It Ar expr1 Oo Fl o Oc Ar expr2
|
|
True if
|
|
.Ar expr1
|
|
and/or
|
|
.Ar expr2
|
|
evaluate to true (logical
|
|
.Qq or ) .
|
|
.It Ar term
|
|
True if
|
|
.Ar term
|
|
is satisfied.
|
|
This has syntax
|
|
.Li [key[,key]*(=~)]?val ,
|
|
where operand
|
|
.Cm key
|
|
is an
|
|
.Xr mdoc 7
|
|
macro to query and
|
|
.Cm val
|
|
is its value.
|
|
See
|
|
.Sx Macro Keys
|
|
for a list of available keys.
|
|
Operator
|
|
.Li \&=
|
|
evaluates a substring, while
|
|
.Li \&~
|
|
evaluates a regular expression.
|
|
.It Fl i Ar term
|
|
If
|
|
.Ar term
|
|
is a regular expression, it
|
|
is evaluated case-insensitively.
|
|
Has no effect on substring terms.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Results are sorted by manual title, with output formatted as
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.D1 title(sec) \- description
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Where
|
|
.Qq title
|
|
is the manual's title (note multiple manual names may exist for one
|
|
title),
|
|
.Qq sec
|
|
is the manual section, and
|
|
.Qq description
|
|
is the manual's short description.
|
|
If an architecture is specified for the manual, it is displayed as
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.D1 title(cat/arch) \- description
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If on a TTY, results are prefixed with a numeric identifier.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.D1 [index] title(cat) \- description
|
|
.Pp
|
|
One may choose a manual be entering the index at the prompt.
|
|
Valid choices are displayed using
|
|
.Ev MANPAGER ,
|
|
or failing that ,
|
|
.Ev PAGER
|
|
or just
|
|
.Xr more 1 .
|
|
Source pages are formatted with
|
|
.Xr mandoc 1 ;
|
|
preformatted pages with
|
|
.Xr cat 1 .
|
|
.Ss Macro Keys
|
|
Queries evaluate over a subset of
|
|
.Xr mdoc 7
|
|
macros indexed by
|
|
.Xr mandocdb 8 .
|
|
In addition to the macro keys listed below, the special key
