catman
creates formatted versions of the
on-line manual pages from their
nroff(1) source. Manual pages
whose formatted versions are missing or out of date are regenerated. If
manual pages are regenerated, catman
also
regenerates the whatis database.
The optional sections argument is one word,
and contains the section numbers of all the sections to be checked. For
example, if sections is ``13f8'', the manual pages in
sections 1, 3f, and 8 will be checked and regenerated. If no
sections argument is provided,
catman
will try to operate on all of the known
manual sections.
The options are as follows:
-k
-n
-p
-s
