Using the man ioslave you are able to read the man pages installed on your system. It is easy to use:

``man:``

  See the sections of the manual, click to find the rest.

``man:/`fopen`

  See the man page of `fopen`.

``man:/`fopen(3)`

  See the man page of `fopen` in section 3.

``man:/`(3)`

  See the index of section 3.

``man:/`intro(3)`

  See the introduction of section 3.

If there are more than one man page of the name that you have entered, you will get a list where you can choose the man page that you want to see.

There is also a shortcut: ``#fopen``, which has the same effect as above.

If you do not find all your man pages, adjust the configuration file `/etc/manpath.config` (or a file of a similar name depending on your distribution) or adjust the environment variables `MANPATH` and `MANSECT`.

As with any other &kde; ioslave, it is possible to enter a &URL;, like ``man:/socket`` in any &kde; application. Try it in &kwrite; and you will see the man page in &HTML; format.
