Aliasing
Tired of typing that dash, or even that n
? Add the following to your
.bashrc
, .bash_profile
, or .zshrc
# Link `man-n` to `man`
$ alias "man=man-n --link"
...and from now on, you can just type man browserify
to access package
documentation. However, man(1) will prefer normal man pages, so when you
wan’t to get the readme of which(n), use man n which
instead of
man which
