How does one add the *.man files recieved with contributed programs
so that they appear in the g.manual listing, (command) help, and
"SRC" below can be found by running 'gmake4.1' or by looking
at the output of 'more `which gmake4.1`'
cp the man page to SRC/../man/man4, then run 'gmake4.1' in SRC/../man
running 'command help' does not depend on the man page
for the g.help command, you need to create something in
SRC/../man/help.src and run the appropriate gmake.
For any programmers listening, I've found that the following
target in a Gmakefile works good (so that this is done automatically).
MSEC=4
MDIR=$(SRC)/../man/man$(MSEC)
MUTL=$(SRC)/../man/utilities
man:
-cp s.semivar.man $(MDIR)/s.semivar
nroff $(MUTL)/man.version $(MDIR)/.class-header \
$(MUTL)/man.header s.semivar.man $(MDIR)/.class-notice \
> $(GISBASE)/man/$(MSEC)/s.semivar
