On-line manual (man) pages provide immediate documentation about a command, function, subroutine, or collection of such things.
Sun WorkShop man pages are located in /opt/SUNWspro/man/ after a standard install of the products. Add this path to your MANPATH environment variable to access these Sun WorkShop man pages.
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: f77(1) is accessed with man f77. 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
