NAME
     manvm -- format and display the on-line Java VM manual pages

SYNOPSIS
     manvm [name]

DESCRIPTION
     Manvm  provides a convenient system for displaying the on-line manual pages
     for different Java VMs without having to  add  their  (conflicting)  manual
     page directories to MANPATH

     By  default,  manvm will select the most "native" and up to date version of
     the Java VM when locating the manual page to be displayed.  This  selection
     process  is  akin to that used by javavm in that the same environment vari-
     ables and processes are used.

     The manual pages are displayed using man, and  all  applicable  environment
     variables,  save  for MANPATH, are respected.  Options may be passed to man
     using the JAVAVM_OPTS environment variable and its associated sub-variables
     and configuration file.

ENVIRONMENT
     JAVA_HOME
	     The presence of this variable in  the  environment  when  executing
	     manvm  will override all other considerations regarding the Java VM
	     whose on-line manual pages will be displayed and the  manual  pages
	     located at ${JAVA_HOME}/man will be used.

     JAVA_OS
	     A	space  delimited  list of operating systems.  The on-line manual
	     pages to be displayed must come from a Java VM that has  been  cre-
	     ated for one of the operating systems in the list.

	     Currently allowed operating system values are `native' and `linux'.

     JAVA_VENDOR
	     A	space  delimited  list	of  Java VM vendors.  The on-line manual
	     pages to be displayed must come from a Java VM that  has  been  re-
	     leased by one of the vendors in the list.

	     Currently allowed vendors are `openjdk', `oracle', and `sun'.

     JAVA_VERSION
	     A	space  delimited  list of versions of the Java VM from which the
	     on-line manual pages may come.  By appending a `+'  to  a	version,
	     the  on-line  manual  pages from any Java VM with a version greater
	     than or equal to the given version will be used.

	     Currently allowed versions are `8', `8+', `11', `11+', `17', `17+',
	     `18', `18+', `19', `19+', `20', `20+', `21', and `21+'.

     JAVAVM_OPTS
	     The contents of this environment variable will be passed to the in-
	     voked man as options.  For more information  on  environment  vari-
	     ables     which	can    be    used    to    set	  options    see
	     /usr/local/etc/javavm_opts.conf.dist.

EXAMPLES
     /usr/local/bin/manvm java
	     Display the on-line manual page for the java programme of	the  the
	     most up to date and "native" Java VM registered with javavm.

     JAVA_VERSION=8 /usr/local/bin/manvm javac
	     Display  the on-line manual page for the javac programme for a Java
	     VM which is version 8.
