Actually thinking of commands as "Terminal" commands can lead you astray. I am beginning to wonder if there is a definition of OS X 'Terminal Commands'. I have found your posts to be very useful. reference for groff's mdoc implementationĭo others have better ways to view local manual pages with full scroll and hot links?
format and display the on-line manual pages search the whatis database for complete words Ls - opens the manual page for ls in your Terminal - should work with most browsers - perhaps try clicking it!ī - Manual page - pity the hot links don't work in the Terminal although they do with several other applications such as ManOpen - see groff_mdoc for further information. It is possible, although the mass edits are not trivial, to make each item in this list a hot link with one of the following: It is easy to page down (shift page-down several times) to the bottom, select all (cmd A), copy (cmd C) and paste into a fast text editor (I still use BBEdit Light). If you want to use the list it may be best to set the terminal to 999 columns before you start. On a basic Leopard installation this produces over 4,000 lines with each line containing one or more manual references.
Paste the following and then type return Open Terminal and paste the following and then type return: From time to time new users ask where they can find a list of Terminal commands.Ĭlearly there are many possible replies to this but I like these four:ģ - Use the excellent 'List pages' facility of ManOpen.
