## Description
|
|
|
|
`Help` is Serenity's digital manual, the GUI counterpart to `man`.
|
|
It lets you search for and read manual pages (or "man pages").
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
To open Help:
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ Help
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To open documentation for the `echo` command:
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ Help echo
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To open the documentation for the `mkdir` command:
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ Help 1 mkdir
|
|
```
|
|
Conversely, to open the documentation about the `mkdir()` syscall:
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ Help 2 mkdir
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Files
|
|
|
|
`Help` looks for man pages under `/usr/share/man`. For example,
|
|
this man page should be located at `/usr/share/man/man1/Applications/Help.md`.
