29;; This code provides a function, manual-entry, with which you can
30;; browse UNIX manual pages. Formatting is done in background so that
31;; you can continue to use your Emacs while processing is going on.
32;;
33;; The mode also supports hypertext-like following of manual page SEE
34;; ALSO references, and other features. See below or do `?' in a
35;; manual page buffer for details.
36
37;; ========== Credits and History ==========
38;; In mid 1991, several people posted some interesting improvements to
39;; man.el from the standard emacs 18.57 distribution. I liked many of
40;; these, but wanted everthing in one single package, so I decided
41;; to encorporate them into a single manual browsing mode. While
42;; much of the code here has been rewritten, and some features added,
43;; these folks deserve lots of credit for providing the initial
44;; excellent packages on which this one is based.
45
46;; Nick Duffek <duffek@chaos.cs.brandeis.edu>, posted a very nice
47;; improvement which retrieved and cleaned the manpages in a
48;; background process, and which correctly deciphered such options as
49;; man -k.
50
51;; Eric Rose <erose@jessica.stanford.edu>, submitted manual.el which
52;; provided a very nice manual browsing mode.
53
eb8c3be9 54;; This package was available as `superman.el' from the LCD package
effdc6a2
RS
55;; for some time before it was accepted into Emacs 19. The entry
56;; point and some other names have been changed to make it a drop-in
57;; replacement for the old man.el package.
58
59;; ========== Features ==========
60;; + Runs "man" in the background and pipes the results through a
61;; series of sed and awk scripts so that all retrieving and cleaning
62;; is done in the background. The cleaning commands are configurable.
63;; + Syntax is the same as Un*x man
64;; + Functionality is the same as Un*x man, including "man -k" and
c3343fcf 65;; "man <section>", etc.
effdc6a2
RS
66;; + Provides a manual browsing mode with keybindings for traversing
67;; the sections of a manpage, following references in the SEE ALSO
68;; section, and more.
69;; + Multiple manpages created with the same man command are put into
70;; a narrowed buffer circular list.
