Enabling the XL Fortran man pages

Man pages are provided for the compiler invocation commands and other utilities that are supplied with the compiler.

However, before you can read the compiler-supplied man pages, you must add the full directory path to the MANPATH environment variable. The command depends on the Linux shell you are using.

To set the MANPATH environment variable using the Bourne or Korn shell, use the following command:

export MANPATH=installation_path/xlf/bg/10.1/man:$MANPATH

To set the MANPATH environment variable using the C shell, use the following command:

setenv MANPATH  installation_path/xlf/bg/10.1/man:$MANPATH

where installation_path is the location where you have installed the XL Fortran packages (by default, this is /opt/ibmcmp/).
