## Name
man - read manual pages
## Synopsis
```**sh
$ man page
$ man section page
```
## Description
`man` finds, loads and displays the so-called manual pages,
or man pages for short, from the Serenity manual. You're reading
the manual page for `man` program itself right now.
## Sections
The Serenity manual is split into the following *sections*, or *chapters*:
1. Command-line programs
2. System calls
More sections will be added in the future.
## Examples
To open documentation for the `echo` command:
```sh
$ man echo
```
To open the documentation for the `mkdir` command:
```sh
$ man 1 mkdir
```
Conversely, to open the documentation about the `mkdir()` syscall:
```sh
$ man 2 mkdir
```
## Files
`man` looks for man pages under `/usr/share/man`. For example,
this man page should be located at `/usr/share/man/man1/man.md`.
