RELNOTES(1)							   RELNOTES(1)


NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     relnotes -	on-line	release	notes viewer

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     relnotes [	-h ]
     relnotes <product>
     relnotes [	-t ] <product> <chapter> ...

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     relnotes is an interface to the on-line release notes.  It	displays the
     release notes by product and chapter using	the man(1) command.  It	can
     also show which products' release notes are installed and the title of
     each chapter installed.

     With no arguments,	relnotes shows which products have release notes
     installed.

     -h			 shows how to use the command.

     product		 shows the chapters that are installed for the named
			 product.  If no table of contents file	can be found,
			 relnotes shows	you a list of chapter numbers.

     product chapter ... displays the specified	chapter(s) from	the named
			 product's release notes.  If chapter is '*' (quoted
			 asterisk), then all chapters are displayed one	after
			 the other.  The display is done via the man(1)
			 command.

     -t	product	chapter	...
			 prints	the specified chapter(s) from the named
			 product's release notes.  The resulting hardcopy
			 won't be as nicely formatted as the hardcopy of the
			 release notes that you	received with the product
			 tape, but will	usually	be sufficiently	legible.

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

     1.	  The product and chapter can now be specified without using the -p
	  and -c options, so they are no longer	supported.

     2.	  By default relnotes looks in the directory /usr/relnotes for release
	  notes. The environment variable RELNOTESPATH allows a	different
	  release notes	directory to be	specified.
