NAME

       dwww - access documentation via WWW

SYNOPSIS

       http://localhost/dwww/index.html
       dwww
       dwww program-name | package-name

DESCRIPTION

       A  typical  Linux  system  has  documentation  in  many formats (manual pages, info files,
       READMEs, and so on).  dwww makes  it  possible  to  access  all  of  these  via  the  same
       interface, a WWW browser.  This makes it easier to use the documentation.

       To use dwww, load the URL given in the SYNOPSIS.  If you have a web browser installed, you
       can also just run the dwww command which loads the URL.  If BROWSER  environment  variable
       is set, dwww uses sensible-browser(1) to load the URL.  Otherwise, dwww first tries to use
       browser  specified  by  DWWW_BROWSER  or  DWWW_X11_BROWSER  configuration  variable   (cf.
       dwww(7)), than will use sensible-browser(1) command.

       If  optional  argument  program-name  or  package-name  is specified, dwww will search all
       documentation related to given program or package.

ENVIRONMENT

       BROWSER
