man命令总结

man命令总结

  • Linux man命令是初学者必须要掌握的一个Linux重要命令,这个命令可以帮助在学习中遇到的各种不会使用的命令问题,每个命令的不同的使用方法都可以在这里查找的到。现在介绍具体使用方法。
  • 在Linux的shell下我经常要使用man命令来查看一些不熟悉的命令的使用方法。
  • man就是manual的缩写,用来查看系统中自带的各种参考手册,但是手册页分为好几个部分,如下所示:
  1. Executable programs or shell commands
  2. System calls (functions provided by the kernel)
  3.  Library calls (functions within program libraries)
  4.  Special files (usually found in /dev)
  5.  File formats and conventions eg /etc/passwd
  6.  Games
  7.  Miscellaneous (including macro packages and conventions), e.g. man(7), groff(7)
  8.  System administration commands (usually only for root)
  9.  Kernel routines [Non standard]

在shell中输入 man+数字+命令/函数 即可以查到相关的命令和函数。若不加数字,那man命令默认从数字较小的手册中寻找相关命令和函数。

MAN(1)                                            Manual pager utils                                            MAN(1)

NAME
       man - an interface to the on-line reference manuals

SYNOPSIS
       man [-C file] [-d] [-D] [--warnings[=warnings]] [-R encoding] [-L locale] [-m system[,...]] [-M path] [-S list]
       [-e extension] [-i|-I] [--regex|--wildcard] [--names-only] [-a] [-u] [--no-subpages]  [-P  pager]  [-r  prompt]
       [-7]  [-E  encoding]  [--no-hyphenation]  [--no-justification]  [-p  string]  [-t]  [-T[device]]  [-H[browser]]
       [-X[dpi]] [-Z] [[section] page ...] ...
       man -k [apropos options] regexp ...
       man -K [-w|-W] [-S list] [-i|-I] [--regex] [section] term ...
       man -f [whatis options] page ...
       man -l [-C file] [-d] [-D] [--warnings[=warnings]] [-R encoding] [-L locale] [-P pager] [-r  prompt]  [-7]  [-E
       encoding] [-p string] [-t] [-T[device]] [-H[browser]] [-X[dpi]] [-Z] file ...
       man -w|-W [-C file] [-d] [-D] page ...
       man -c [-C file] [-d] [-D] page ...
       man [-?V]

DESCRIPTION
       man is the system's manual pager. Each page argument given to man is normally the name of a program, utility or
       function.  The manual page associated with each of these arguments is then found and displayed. A  section,  if
       provided,  will  direct man to look only in that section of the manual.  The default action is to search in all
       of the available sections, following a pre-defined order and to show only the first page found,  even  if  page
       exists in several sections.

       The table below shows the section numbers of the manual followed by the types of pages they contain.

       1   Executable programs or shell commands
       2   System calls (functions provided by the kernel)
       3   Library calls (functions within program libraries)
       4   Special files (usually found in /dev)
       5   File formats and conventions eg /etc/passwd
