JCATMAN(1) BSD General Commands Manual JCATMAN(1) NAME jcatman -- preformat Japanese or original (English) man pages SYNOPSIS jcatman [-f | -force] [-h | -help] [-p | -print] [-r | -remove] [-v | -verbose] [directories ...] DESCRIPTION Jcatman format Japanese or original (English) man pages to ASCII/EUC. It's like typing `man program' for all Japanese or original man pages in directories. Directories is a list of Japanese or original man directo- ries or subdirectories separated by spaces or colons. You have to set the envionment variable LC_CTYPE (or LANG) to ja_JP.EUC if you include Japanese man directories in directories. Use existing directories of /usr/share/man/ja_JP.EUC, /usr/share/man/ja_JP, /usr/share/man/ja (if LC_CTYPE or LANG set to ja_JP.EUC) or /usr/share/man (other) if no directories defined. OPTIONS -f, -force Force overwriting old cat pages. Normally only those pages will be formatted which are not up to date. This option is a waste of time, CPU and RAM. -h, -help Print options and exit. -p, -print Don't actually format man pages. Show what would be done. -r, -remove Remove garbage, e. g. catpage without manpage, uncompressed cat- page but a compressed catpage exist, filenames with non-alphanu- meric characters, uncompressed manpage but a compressed manpage exist. -v, -verbose More warnings. EXAMPLES $ jcatman Format man pages in existing directories of /usr/share/man/ja_JP.EUC, /usr/share/man/ja_JP, /usr/share/man/ja if necessary. $ jcatman $MANPATH Format all your man pages if necessary. $ jcatman -f /usr/share/man/ja/man1 /usr/share/man/ja/manl Force reformatting of all man pages in /usr/share/man/ja/man1 and /usr/share/man/ja/manl. $ jcatman -p /usr/X11R6/man/ja Show only. FEATURES Very fast if all man Japanese pages already formatted. Does not support the -w option as some other systems do. Use jmakewhatis(1) to rebuild the `whatis' database. BUGS jman(1) is a setuid program. Be careful that user `man' has write per- missions to the jcatman directories. Jcatman does not check for any `.so' in Japanese man page sources. Use hard or symlinks to avoid redun- dant formatted Japanese man pages. SEE ALSO jman(1), jmanpath(1), jmakewhatis(1). HISTORY The original version of catman command appeared in FreeBSD 2.1. Japanized jcatman command appeared in ports/packages collection of Free- BSD 2.2. AUTHORS Wolfram Schneider <wosch@FreeBSD.org>, Berlin.
