1.7 Man Pages
Online manual (man) pages provide immediate documentation about a command, function, subroutine, or collection of such things. The user's MANPATH environment variable should be set to the path to the installed Sun Studio man directory to access the Sun Studio man pages. Typically this is /opt/SUNWspro/man on Solaris.
You can display a man page by running the command:
demo% man topic |
Throughout the Fortran documentation, man page references appear with the topic name and man section number: f95(1) is accessed with man f95. Other sections, denoted by ieee_flags(3M) for example, are accessed using the -s option on the man command:
demo% man -s 3M ieee_flags |
The Fortran library routines are documented in the man page section 3F.
