The basic idea...

"The basic idea behind open source is very simple. When programmers on the Internet can read, redistribute, and modify the source for a piece of software, it evolves. People improve it, people adapt it, people fix bugs. And this can happen at a speed that, if one is used to the slow pace of conventional software development, seems astonishing...
...The Open Source pages exist to make this case to the commercial world."    - Introduction to Open Source - www.opensource.org

* Manpages

market download Read GNU/Linux manual pages from anywhere, anytime on your Android device!

Search through most of the manual pages about common GNU/Linux and Unix commands.

man is the GNU/Linux manual pager. Each "page" argument given to man is normally the name of a program, utility or function. The manual page associated with each of these arguments is then found and displayed. A section, if provided, will direct man to look only in that section of the manual. The default action is to search in all of the available sections, following a pre-defined order and to show only the first page found, even if page exists in several sections.

You can download manual pages locally on your SD card or internal storage to read it without internet connection.
