Most of the manuals include tutorial 5 material for new users as well as serving as a complete reference 6 for command-line options, supported extensions, and the like. 7 </p><p> 8 When you install Sourcery CodeBench Lite, links to both the PDF and HTML versions 9 of the manuals are created in the shortcuts folder you select. If 10 you elected not to create shortcuts when installing Sourcery CodeBench Lite, the 11 documentation can be found in the 12 <code class="filename">share/doc/sourceryg++-arm-none-eabi/</code> 13 subdirectory of your installation directory. 14 </p><p> 15 In addition to the detailed reference manuals, Sourcery CodeBench Lite includes 16 a Unix-style manual page for each toolchain component. 17 You can view these by invoking the <code class="command">man</code> command 18 with the pathname of the file you want to view. For example, you can 19 first go to the directory containing the man pages: 20 </p><pre class="screen">> cd $INSTALL/share/doc/sourceryg++-arm-none-eabi/man/man1</pre><p> 21 Then you can invoke <code class="command">man</code> as: 22 </p><pre class="screen">> man ./arm-none-eabi-gcc.1</pre><p> 23 Alternatively, if you use <code class="command">man</code> regularly, you'll 24 probably find it more convenient to add the directory containing the 25 Sourcery CodeBench man pages to your <code class="envar">MANPATH</code> environment variable. 26 This should go in your <code class="filename">.profile</code> or equivalent 27 shell startup file; see <a class="xref" href="sec-setting-up-environment.html" title="2.6.�Setting up the Environment">Section�2.6, “Setting up the Environment”</a> for 28 instructions. Then you can invoke <code class="command">man</code> 29 with just the command name rather than a pathname. 30 </p><p> 31 Finally, note that every command-line utility program included with 32 Sourcery CodeBench Lite can be invoked with a <code class="option">--help</code> option. 33 This prints a brief description of the arguments and options to the 34 program and exits without doing further processing. 35 </p></div><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="sec-example-programs.html">Prev</a>�</td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="chap-next-steps.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right">�<a accesskey="n" href="chap-release.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">7.2.�Example Programs�</td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top">�Appendix�A.�Sourcery CodeBench Lite Release Notes</td></tr></table></div></body></html> 36
