man-pages Description

The manpages package contains a large collection of man pages for Linux covering programming APIs, file formats, protocols, etc. Linux documentation can be found in man pages, info files, HOWTOs and FAQs, and elsewhere. (For example, also the kernel Documentation directory contains a lot of good stuff.) A nice index for the man pages in Fedora Core 2 is found at the superman site.Man pages belonging to programs are usually distributed together with those programs. Therefore, the Linux man-pages distribution mainly contains the pages for system calls and library routines, special devices, and file formats.However, it also contains documentation for a number of programs, in cases where the authors or maintainers of the program do not distribute man pages themselves.
