Linux Programmer's Guide Man Pages

[Pink Floyd]

I need them installed so I can use them trough the command line.
I searched them but I only found html, tex, pdf etc versions, but I need the "man" version.

Can someone help me?
Thank you

If it's not at tldp I'd think you have to try to convert this thing yourself.

But:
Can't you just use the html-version with a text-browser like lynx or links?

By far the easiest option, if you ask me.

Hi, maybe this is what you needs:

cyt@ubuntu:~> apt-cache search manpages-dev
manpages-dev - Manual pages about using GNU/Linux for development

Good call. I've been looking for that package for some time now. thanks

The manpages-dev isn't on apt-get anymore. Is there something else I can download to get these Man Pages????

There's no problem. Nobody's born knowing.
