I try to describe about current Japanese online manuals situations,
because it may be helpful for FDP Directory Reorganization.
o Japanese online manuals exist in /doc/ja/man repository.
o Japanese online manuals will be installed in /usr/share/man/ja
directory, if we type:
# cd somewhere/doc/ja/man; make all install
o Japanese online manuals are archived in manpages.?? for snapshots
and RELEASEs. If we select `doc' when we install FreeBSD from
snapshots, Japanese online manuals will be installed in
/usr/share/man/ja.
o To read `formatted" Japanese online manuals (under
/usr/share/man/ja and etc.), we should install following ports or
packages:
- ja-man-1.1g (ports/japanese/man):
locale capable man program based on GNU man-1.1 (FreeBSD's man
program is also based on GNU man-1.1).
ja-man-1.1g's man program calls `setlocate(LC_CTYPE, "")', gets
a string formed "<language>_<country>.<code_table>" and searches
manual pages in following subdirectories under `manpath`.
* <language>_<country>.<code_table>
* <language>_<country>
* <language>
- ja-groff-0.99 (ports/japanese/man):
Japanese capable groff. For Japanese language, it can handle
only EUC (it cannot handle Shift-JIS or ISO-2022-JP directly).
- some terminal emulators which can handle Japanese:
ja-kterm-6.2.0 (ports/japanese/kterm) or something.
- some pager which can handle Japanese:
ja-less-322 (ports/japanese/less) or something.
