Return to manup.8 CVS log

Up to [cvsweb.bsd.lv] / mandoc

Add manup(8).  This runs through mandocdb(8) databases (in the same way that
apropos(1) does so) and updates an HTML fragment cache for use by man.cgi.
Right now man.cgi is "online" in that it requires mandoc(1) in its path,
but this doesn't work for, say, OpenBSD's apache chroot(1).  This allows
a cache to be maintained.
