man的实际应用
下面通过一个实际的问题,来说明man的作用
例子:字符终端登陆时,显示当前登陆终端号,主机名和当前时间。
要求使用man查找实现上述要求,提示:修改/etc/issue文件。怎么修改可以通过man查看issue求助。
我们先用cat看下/etc/issue文件
# cat /etc/issue

man motd
MOTD(5) Linux Programmer’s Manual MOTD(5)
NAME
motd - message of the day
DESCRIPTION
The contents of /etc/motd are displayed by login(1) after a successful
login but just before it executes the login shell.
The abbreviation "motd" stands for "message of the day", and this file
has been traditionally used for exactly that (it requires much less
disk space than mail to all users).
FILES
/etc/motd

login(1), issue(5)

man agentty
AGETTY(8) AGETTY(8)
NAME
agetty - alternative Linux getty
SYNOPSIS
agetty [-8ihLmnUw] [-f issue_file] [-l login_program] [-I init] [-t
timeout] [-H login_host] port baud_rate,... [term]
agetty [-8ihLmnw] [-f issue_file] [-l login_program] [-I init] [-t
timeout] [-H login_host] baud_rate,... port [term]
DESCRIPTION
agetty opens a tty port, prompts for a login name and invokes the
/bin/login command. It is normally invoked by init(8).
agetty has several non-standard features that are useful for hard-wired
and for dial-in lines:
o Adapts the tty settings to parity bits and to erase, kill, end-
of-line and uppercase characters when it reads a login name.
The program can handle 7-bit characters with even, odd, none or
space parity, and 8-bit characters with no parity. The following
special characters are recognized: @ and Control-U (kill); #,
DEL and back space (erase); carriage return and line feed (end
of line). See also --erase-chars and --kill-chars options.
o Optionally deduces the baud rate from the CONNECT messages pro-
duced by Hayes(tm)-compatible modems.
