* Remember which names are in the NAME section.Ingo Schwarze2014-04-041-0/+2
| | | | | | | This helps to find missing MLINKS. Database build times do not change and database growth is minimal (1.2% with -Q, 0.7% without -Q in /usr/share/man), so making this optional would be pointless.
* merge OpenBSD rev. 1.20, describing new featuresIngo Schwarze2014-04-041-2/+20

* Sync to OpenBSD:Ingo Schwarze2014-03-171-55/+151
| | | | | | | | * do not talk about shell globbing * describe logical operations * improve examples * add HISTORY * some wording improvements for clarity
* Merge the relevant parts from the VERSION_1_12 branch:Ingo Schwarze2013-10-011-1/+1
| | | | | - change mandocdb.db to mandoc.db - add HISTORY to mandocdb(8)
* For citing the names and email addresses of authors,Ingo Schwarze2013-07-131-2/+1
| | | | | | | consistently use the style ".An name Aq Mt email". Triggered by a question from Jan Stary <hans at stare dot cz>, ok jmc@.
* Simple partial sync with OpenBSD:Ingo Schwarze2013-07-051-4/+4
| | | | | | | * Again accept suffixes on the name of the whatis utility. * The usage line for whatis must not invite expressions. * Revert the argument names in the SYNOPSIS back to the usual ones. * Revert a few gratuitious changes regarding line breaks etc.
* Merge whatis.1 into apropos.1 (and remove), add whatis bits to aproposKristaps Dzonsons2012-06-091-13/+19
| | | | (via mansearch), and merge mandocdb.h into mansearch.h (and remove).
* Flip apropos to use mansearch instead of apropos_db.Kristaps Dzonsons2012-06-081-92/+24
| | | | | | | | | This makes the utility much smaller and simpler. A lot of functionality has been omitted while the sqlite3 search routines improve (logical operations, etc.). It still needs work to make the output more conventional. Also add the manpage utility, which I use extensively as a mind-meld of apropos and man.
* Be insane. Make apropos(1) subsume man(1).Kristaps Dzonsons2012-03-241-10/+26

* State default usage before listing arguments of a utility. Inspired by aKristaps Dzonsons2011-12-251-12/+14
| | | | patch to mandocdb.8 by schwarze@ some time ago. Ok jmc@.
* Use the traditional name "whatis.db" for the mandocdb(8) databases.Ingo Schwarze2011-12-251-2/+2
| | | | Requested by deraadt@, ok kristaps@.
* Support leading, trailing and double colons in MANPATH to prepend,Kristaps Dzonsons2011-12-241-1/+12
| | | | | | | | append or insert the man.conf(5) default path; compatible with GNU manpath(1), implementation by kristaps@, heavily tweaked by schwarze@. Updates to MANPATH documentation applied to whatis.1, apropos.1, and catman.8 also.
* implement -C (alternative config file) for apropos(1) and mandocdb(8),Ingo Schwarze2011-12-121-1/+23
| | | | | including various tweaks to the whatis(8) manual; ok kristaps@
* Snip some whitespace from apropos(1) and remove mandoc(1) ref fromKristaps Dzonsons2011-11-291-1/+1
| | | | | whatis(1) (both apropos/whatis aren't related to mandoc from an operator's perspective).
* Make `-i' only apply to regular expressions. For the equality operatorKristaps Dzonsons2011-11-291-22/+16
| | | | | | (and thus the default), always use strcasestr(). Discussed on tech@ with schwarze@. While here, fix the apropos.c usage() message to be consistent with apropos(1) and clean up the EXAMPLES in apropos(1).
* Add tables of matchable keys into apropos.1. Ok and with feedback byKristaps Dzonsons2011-11-291-4/+82
| | | | schwarze@.
* Sync to OpenBSD, mostly gratuitous and whitespace differences,Ingo Schwarze2011-11-261-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | but a few serious things as well: * -M overrides MANPATH * -m prepends to the path * put back database close calls that got lost in mandocdb * missing sys/types.h in manpath.c, needed for size_t ok kristaps@
* Fix whitespace in manuals.Kristaps Dzonsons2011-11-231-2/+1

* Initial support for man.conf/makepath(1).Kristaps Dzonsons2011-11-201-3/+13

* Clarify some behaviour, bringing schwarze@'s patch and mine closer togetherKristaps Dzonsons2011-11-201-19/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (although I still don't have -M, which is a big piece). First, the default search path is the cwd. This will change to use -M once I look over that code. If MANPATH is specified, this replaces the cwd. Both of these are augmented by -m. If paths don't exist or don't have databases, they're silently ignored. This makes perfect sense: you may be given a superset of possible paths. The corner case of no paths (where, say, MANPATH consists of bogus paths or the cwd is unreadable) simply means that no paths are searched.
* Integrate a moderately-patched version of schwarze@'s support for multipleKristaps Dzonsons2011-11-201-3/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | directories containing mandocdb(8) databases. Some changes follow: (1) don't support -M yet; (2) fall back to cwd if no prior manpath has been specified; (3) resolve manpages using realpath() to prevent consecutive chdir()'s over relative paths; (4) note where further error-reporting is required; (5) fix leaking memory on exit in several cases.
* Evaluation with logical subexpressions. This allows support for arbitrary,Kristaps Dzonsons2011-11-181-50/+94
| | | | nested logical subexpressions with AND (-a) and OR (-o) support.
* Change getopt() to be more like schwarze@'s suggestions.Kristaps Dzonsons2011-11-091-38/+19

* Use `Mt' instead of `Aq' for email address.Kristaps Dzonsons2011-10-081-1/+2

* Import apropos from mandoc-tools after inlining all source filesKristaps Dzonsons2011-10-061-0/+169
(originally including extern.h, state.c, and sort.c). The apropos utility interfaces with the databases of mandocdb to provide semantic searching capabilities. It Works For Me, but will need lots of cleanup in the coming months.
