.TH CATMAN 8 2023-01-08 2.11.2 "Værktøjer til manualsider"
.SH NAVN
catman \- opret eller opdater de på forhånd formaterede manualsider
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBcatman\fP [\|\fB\-d?V\fP\|] [\|\fB\-M\fP \fIsti\fP\|] [\|\fB\-C\fP \fIfil\fP\|]
[\|\fIafsnit\fP\|] \&.\|.\|.
.SH BESKRIVELSE
\fBcatman\fP is used to create an up to date set of pre\-formatted manual
pages known as cat pages.  Cat pages are generally much faster to display
than the original manual pages, but require extra storage space.  The
decision to support cat pages is that of the local administrator, who must
provide suitable directories to contain them.

The options available to \fBcatman\fP are the manual page hierarchies and
sections to pre\-format.  The default hierarchies are those specified as
system hierarchies in the man\-db configuration file, and the default
sections are either the colon\-delimited contents of the environment variable
$\fBMANSECT\fP or the standard set compiled into \fBman\fP if $\fBMANSECT\fP is
undefined.  Supplying \fBcatman\fP with a set of whitespace\-delimited section
names will override both of the above.

\fBcatman\fP makes use of the \fBindex\fP database cache associated with each
hierarchy to determine which files need to be formatted.

.TP 
.if  !'po4a'hide' .B MANSECT
If $\fBMANSECT\fP is set, its value is a colon\-delimited list of sections and
it is used to determine which manual sections to search and in what order.
The default is "1 n l 8 3 0 2 3type 3posix 3pm 3perl 3am 5 4 9 6 7", unless overridden by the \fBSECTION\fP directive
in \fI/etc/manpath.config\fP.

See the \fBSEARCH PATH\fP section of \fBmanpath\fP(5)  for the default behaviour
and details of how this environment variable is handled.
