PROJECT: meta
VERSION: 0.06SYNOPSIS
dbman_install.pl [options]DESCRIPTION
This executable is part of the dbman package. If you don't know what dbman is please refer to the dbman documentation.
This program installs a single manual page into the dbman database. You should prepare your troff/groff manual page with whatevery tools you desire and then, at the installation part of your software call this program to handle installation of any of the manual pages. Since not every system has dbman installed you should check (using autoconf or other methods) whether dbman is installed in your installation script/Makefile or whatever. If dbman is not install you can resort to using the regular install(1) methods for installing the manual page on the local hard drive.
This program is designed to be used by an automatic installer (based on autoconf/automake or just plain makefiles) but can be used by regular users too in order to add specific manual pages to their dbman repository.
The manual page given should be an unzipped troff input file. The section given should be a section already in the database.
