Hey everybody:

I wrote a little program in bash and I would like to add something to the man files.

In other words, the script is called 'temp' and I want to be able to type 'man temp' and get a manual page that I'll type as soon as I know how to do this.

Thanks!
-Matthew

/usr/share/man

also look at the --where section of the man documentation:
man manit's about 4/5 of the way down.

Thank you. I didn't think to check the man man file.
