Check out the command 'manpath' which is used by 'man' to get the paths to search for manpages (at least on linux)

Usually at the end of every man page is a paragraph 'See also' where you can find the names of other man pages that are thematically linked. In my case I see nroff mentioned (which is the name of the utility and of the language that the man pages use). Also I see man(7) which is another man page of man, just in another section. You can read that by issuing 'man 7 man' (if your version of man is similar to mine)

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
