Generating man pages for linux users

by Benoit Touchette · in RTS Starter Kit · 11/17/2004 (6:39 pm) · 3 replies

Resource file needed available at freewebs.com/torktools/doxygen.man.cfg (tested here with doxygen 1.3.7).

1- Create a directory doc in the top level src tree for the RTS pack (ie. 'mkdir doc').
2- Download the doxgen cfg file into doc.
3- Run doxygen. Ie. doxygen doc/doxygen.man.cfg
4- As root move the man directory to usr/local (ie. do 'su' followed by 'mv documentation/man/man9 /usr/local/man/').

Doing 'man XXXX' should now bring up the XXXX man page (ie. 'man AIPlayer brings up information for AIPlayer').
No more searching in various files for needed information.
