    <i>Man</i> locates and prints pages of this manual named <i>title</i> in the
    specified <i>sections</i>. <i>Title</i> is given in lower case. Each <i>section</i>
    is a number; pages marked (2S), for example, belong to chapter
    2. If no <i>section</i> is specified, pages in all sections are printed.
    Any name from the NAME section at the top of the page will serve
    as a
    <i>title</i>.

<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>

    The manual was intended to be typeset; some detail is sacrificed
    on text terminals. 
    <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
    
    There is no automatic mechanism to keep the indices up to date.
    
    <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
    
    Except for special cases, <i>man</i> doesn&#8217;t recognize things that should
    be run through <i>tbl</i> and/or <i>eqn</i>.<br>
