Sorry about that. The online man pages were turned off because the CGI-bin script that provided the service was a known security hole. If you have already downloaded the ldm-mcidas package, you already have the man pages for the decoders. All you have to do is adjust your MANPATH to include the installation 'man' directory in your MANPATH environment variable. Example: -- assume that you have downloaded and installed the ldm-mcidas package in the ~ldm/ldm-mcidas directory and that the runtime link has been created for the installation as follows: <as 'ldm'> cd ldm-mcidas ln -s ldm-mcidas-2004 runtime ln -s runtime/* . export MANPATH=$MANPATH:/home/ldm/ldm-mcidas/man I made the links referred to above in the ~ldm/ldm-mcidas directory on shu.cup.edu and updated the MANPATH definition in ~ldm/.bash_profile. You should now be able to get the MAN page listing for all ldm-mcidas decoders like: <after making .bash_profile settings active> man proftomd Also, if you run any of the ldm-mcidas decoders with no arguments, they will give you an abbreviated help listing.
