This directory contains the bash documentation. FAQ - a set of frequently-asked questions about Bash with answers INTRO - a short introduction to bash article.ms - an article I wrote about bash for The Linux Journal bash.1 - the bash man page builtins.1 - a man page that documents the builtins, extracted from bash.1 bashref.texi - the `bash reference manual' bashref.info - the `bash reference manual' processed by `makeinfo' readline.3 - the readline man page The `.ps' files are postscript versions of the above. The `.html' files are HTML versions of the man page and reference manual. The `.0' files are formatted manual pages. The `.txt' versions are ascii -- the output of `groff -Tascii'. The rest of this file explains how to use the `builtins.1' man page. For each command in the list of builtins create a file in man/man1 called: ${command}.1 eg. for.1 type.1 alias.1 etc. All these files are identical as follows: jaws@jaws(264)$ cat alias.1 .so man1/builtins.1 jaws@jaws(265)$ Make sure you adjust the .so line in builtins.1 to reflect where you put it.
