This is the set of manual pages for the GNO base distribution. It does
|
||
|
not include manual pages for utilities and libraries that are considered
|
||
|
to be GNO "add-ons".
|
||
|
<em>Note that these are for GNO v2.0.6, are under active development, and
|
||
|
are subject to change.</em>
|
||
|
Some of the documented functions, programs, and files are not available
|
||
|
for GNO v2.0.4.
|
||
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
Each of the chapters has an introductory page, titled <b>intro</b>.
|
||
|
For a brief introduction to the manual pages in general, see the
