FYI,
I have been quietly updating the man page database adding "similar threads" for man pages.
STEP 1: Full Text MySQL DB Search Matches
The first step, after creating the DB columns, was to process each of the nearly 400K man pages and do a full text mysql search, match and score... (10 Replies)
Today I change the DB and the PHP code and rebuilt the database for similar threads at the end of each post, increasing from a max of 5 to a max of 10 similar threads per post:

Hello.
I have redesigned our "similar threads" for a more "clean style" in both the desktop view and the mobile view for the forum "show thread".
The new design is a simple straight-forward use of div elements and all the legacy table elements have been removed.
The result is a "clean"... (7 Replies)
We just added a new feature.
When tagging a thread, if you tag the thread "solved" the title of the thread will show up as blue (#0000FF) in various places (forum view, top stats, etc.)

Hi,
I'm working on two flavours of unix namely HP-UX and sun solaris.
In HP-UX, for executing the previous commands, i use the arrow keys. But on sun solaris this is not working.

INTRO(3) Linux Programmer's Manual INTRO(3)NAME
intro - introduction to library functions
DESCRIPTION
Section 3 of the manual describes all library functions excluding the library functions (system call wrappers) described in section 2,
which implement system calls.
Many of the functions described in the section are part of the Standard C Library (libc). Some functions are part of other libraries
(e.g., the math library, libm, or the real-time library, librt) in which case the manual page will indicate the linker option needed to
link against the required library (e.g., -lm and -lrt, respectively, for the aforementioned libraries).
In some cases, the programmer must define a feature test macro in order to obtain the declaration of a function from the header file speci-
fied in the man page SYNOPSIS section. (Where required, these feature test macros must be defined before including any header files.) In
such cases, the required macro is described in the man page. For further information on feature test macros, see feature_test_macros(7).
CONFORMING TO
Certain terms and abbreviations are used to indicate UNIX variants and standards to which calls in this section conform. See standards(7).
