Enabling man pages
Man pages are provided for the compiler invocation commands and utilities (e.g. scu and gdgmgr). Man pages are provided in English only.
Before you can view the COBOL for Linux® on x86
utility man pages, you must add the man page directory to the MANPATH
environment
variable.
If you have installed COBOL for Linux on x86 in
the default location, enter the following command to update the
MANPATH
environment
variable.export
MANPATH=$MANPATH:/opt/ibm/cobol/1.2.0/man:/opt/ibm/cobol/rte/man
If you have installed COBOL for Linux on x86 in a
nondefault location, enter the following command to update the
MANPATH
environment
variable.export
MANPATH=$MANPATH:installation_path/cobol/1.2.0/man:/opt/ibm/cobol/rte/man
where
installation_path is the target directory specified by the
--prefix
option of the nondefault installation command on RHEL or
SLES, or the /opt/ibm directory under the root directory of
chroot on Ubuntu.To test whether the man pages have been successfully installed, open one or more of the man pages, as described in Viewing the man pages.
