This command uses the standard Unix man command. The path for searching manpages is the ~release/man directory.

The basic function of manaim is to provide on-line displays of AIM referencepages. The manaim command formats (using Nroff) and displays one or morespecified reference/manual pages.

For keyword search the-k option will display one line summary of each command where the string ofkeyword is matched by identical strings in the aim/release/man/whatis file.

For filename search the-F option attempts to locate manual pages related to any of the given filenames,and then prints one-line summaries containing the resulting names.This option also uses the whatis database.

Manaim command provides help information about the AIM tools and otheroptions. There is another command called listdocfile-name, which displays long documents on-line (e.g. bibliography), which are notnecessarily help pages.
