- Purge and process manual pages:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`mandb`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Update a single entry:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`mandb --filename {{path/to/file}}`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Create entries from scratch instead of updating:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`mandb --create`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Only process user databases:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`mandb --user-db`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Do not purge obsolete entries:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`mandb --no-purge`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
