1.1 SiSU Manual
5
The most up to date information on sisu should be contained in the
sisu_manual, available at:
6
< http://www.jus.uio.no/sisu/sisu_manual/>
7
and (from SiSU 0.59 onwards) installed locally at:
8
/usr/share/doc/sisu/sisu_manual/
9
or equivalent directory
10
Within the SiSU tarball at:
11
./data/doc/sisu/sisu_manual/
12
1.2 SiSU man pages
13
If SiSU is installed on your system usual man commands should be
available, try:
14
man sisu
15
man sisu_markup
16
man sisu_commands
17
Most SiSU man pages are generated directly from sisu documents
that are used to prepare the sisu manual, the sources files for which
are located within the SiSU tarball at:
18
./data/doc/sisu/sisu_manual/
19
Once installed, directory equivalent to:
20
/usr/share/doc/sisu/sisu_manual/
21
Available man pages are converted back to html using man2html:
22
/usr/share/doc/sisu/html/
23
./data/doc/sisu/html/
24
The SiSU man pages can be viewed online at:1

generated from source using rman < http://polyglotman.sourceforge.net/rman.html>
With regard to SiSU man pages the formatting generated
for markup syntax is not quite right, for that you might prefer the
links under: < http://www.jus.uio.no/sample>

An online version of the sisu man page is available here:

1.3 SiSU built-in interactive help
32
This is particularly useful when current installation information is
obtained as the interactive help is able to provide information on your
sisu configuration and setup.
33
sisu --help
34
sisu --help [subject]
35
sisu --help env [for feedback on the way your system is setup
with regard to sisu]
36
sisu -V [same as above command]
37
sisu --help commands
38
sisu --help markup
39
Apart from real-time information on your current configuration the
SiSU manual and man pages are likely to contain more up-to-date
information than the sisu interactive help (for example on commands and
markup).
40
NOTE: Running the command sisu (alone without any flags, filenames or
wildcards) brings up the interactive help, as does any sisu command
that is not recognised. Enter to escape.
