.\" In .TH, FOO should be all caps, SECTION should be 1-8, maybe w/ subsection .\" other parms are allowed: see man(7), man(1) .\" .\" This template provided by Tom Christiansen <tchrist@jhereg.perl.com>. .\" .TH FOO SECTION .SH NAME foo, bar \- programs to do something .SH SYNOPSIS A short usage summary. .PP .B foo { .BR this | that } [ .B -flags ] [ .B \-o .I option ] .I argument [ .I more... ] .SH DESCRIPTION .\" Putting a newline after each sentence can generate better output. Long drawn-out discussion of the program. It's a good idea to break this up into subsections using the .SS macro, like these: .SS "A Sample Subsection" .SS "Yet Another Sample Subsection" References to the .BR foo (SECTION) (or other) manual page should use the .BR macro as here. .PP Use the .PP macro to start a new paragraph within a section. .SH OPTIONS Some people make this separate from the description. The following style is typically used to document options: .TP .BR this | that The user MUST specify either .B this or .B that to run the program. The { and } braces mean one of the enclosed is required. The bar (|) separates exclusive options (i.e. you cannot have both at once). .TP .B \-o Pass the user-supplied .I option to .B foo to change its behaviour. The fact that .I option is underlined or in italics means that the user replaces it with a valid value for this option. The [ and ] brackets mean it isn't required. .IP Use \(oq\e-\(cq rather than \(oq-\(cq for dashes in command-line options. \(oq-\(cq means hyphen, and formats differently when using certain output devices. .TP .I argument The last .I argument is required, because it is not in brackets. .TP .I more means that the user can optionally specify additional arguments at the end. The ellipses (...) indicate one or more of this parameter is allowed. .SH "RETURN VALUE" What the program or function returns if successful. .SH ERRORS Return codes, either exit status or errno settings. .SH EXAMPLES Give some example uses of the program. .SH ENVIRONMENT Environment variables this program might care about. .SH FILES All files used by the program. Typical usage is like this: .br .nf .\" set tabstop to longest possible filename, plus a wee bit .ta \w'/usr/lib/perl/getopts.pl 'u \fI/usr/man\fR default man tree \fI/usr/man/man*/*.*\fR unformatted (nroff source) man pages .SH NOTES Miscellaneous commentary. .SH CAVEATS Things to take special care with, sometimes called WARNINGS. .SH DIAGNOSTICS All the possible error messages the program can print out, what they mean, and how to correct them if applicable. .SH BUGS Things that are broken or just don't work quite right. .SH RESTRICTIONS Bugs you don't plan to fix. :-) .SH AUTHOR Who wrote it (or AUTHORS if multiple). .SH HISTORY Programs derived from other sources sometimes have this. .SH "SEE ALSO" .\" Always quote multiple words for .SH Other man pages to check out, like .BR man (1), .BR man (7), .BR mandb (8), .BR catman (8).
