Template:Template doc page viewed directly To be used for inserting manual page links into articles on Unix topics.

Usage

Examples

In Out
{{man|3|printf|||inline}} printf
{{man|3|printf|die.net}} printf(3) – Linux Library Functions Manual
{{man|3|printf||formatted output conversion}} printf: formatted output conversion – System Interfaces Reference, The Single UNIX Specification, Issue 7 from The Open Group

Parameters

  1. Manual section
  2. Manual page name
  3. Source (the name of a subpage in the Template:Man namespace; defaults to die.net. For a list of subpages see Special:prefixindex/Template:man/.)
  4. Page description
  5. Style parameter; currently inline omits the attribution.

Hacking

Writing sources

See Template:Man/die.net for an example. A source takes two parameters, the manual section and manual page name, and returns an URL to the manual page.

Internals

Template:man handles choosing the default source. Template:man/format actually formats the link and descriptions into a nice-looking link+auxilia in Unix style.
