Hi all. I just installed libncurses5-dev. man ncurses gives me a very nice overview of ncurses. It also gives me a very big list of function within ncurses. Next to each function name is the matching man page name. for instance, clear() has the man page clear(3NCURSES).
when I type man clear(3NCURSES) i get [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/src$ man clear(3NCURSES) bash: syntax error near unexpected token `clear(3' However, I did find that particular page in /usr/share/man/man3/clear.3ncurses.gz How do I view this page using the man command? I have had this problem with many other pages, not just ncurses. thanks!! xucaen __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get email at your own domain with Yahoo!
