man-1.5j-11 RPM for i386

From Contributed RPMs / RPMS

Name: man Distribution: Red Hat Linux
Version: 1.5j Vendor: Red Hat, Inc.
Release: 11 Build date: Tue Sep 3 09:59:53 2002
Group: System Environment/Base Build host: stripples.devel.redhat.com
Size: 150193 Source RPM: man-1.5j-11.src.rpm
Packager: Red Hat, Inc. <http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla>
Summary: A set of documentation tools: man, apropos and whatis.
The man package includes three tools for finding information and/or
documentation about your Linux system: man, apropos, and whatis. The
man system formats and displays on-line manual pages about commands or
functions on your system. Apropos searches the whatis database
(containing short descriptions of system commands) for a string.
Whatis searches its own database for a complete word.

The man package should be installed on your system because it is the
primary way to find documentation on a Linux system.
