+Using the man ioslave you are able to read the man pages installed
+on your system. It is easy to use:
+</para>
+
+<variablelist>
+<varlistentry>
+<term><userinput><command>man:</command></userinput></term>
+<listitem>
+<para>See the sections of the manual, click to find the rest.
+</para>
+</listitem>
+</varlistentry>
+<varlistentry>
+<term><userinput><command>man:</command><replaceable>fopen</replaceable></userinput></term>
+<listitem>
+<para>See the man page of <command>fopen</command>.
+</para>
+</listitem>
+</varlistentry>
+<varlistentry>
+<term><userinput><command>man:</command><replaceable>fopen(3)</replaceable></userinput></term>
+<listitem>
+<para>See the man page of <command>fopen</command> in section 3.
+</para>
+</listitem>
+</varlistentry>
+<varlistentry>
+<term><userinput><command>man:</command><replaceable>(3)</replaceable></userinput></term>
+<listitem>
+<para>See the index of section 3.
+</para>
+</listitem>
+</varlistentry>
+<varlistentry>
+<term><userinput><command>man:</command>intro<replaceable>(3)</replaceable></userinput></term>
+<listitem>
+<para>See the introduction of section 3.
+</para>
+</listitem>
+</varlistentry>
+</variablelist>
+
+<note><para>If there are more than one man page of the name that you
+have entered, you will get a list where you can choose the man page
+that you want to see.</para></note>
+
+<para>
+There is also a shortcut: <userinput><command>#fopen</command></userinput>,
+which has the same effect as above.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+If you do not find all your man pages, adjust the configuration file
+<filename>/etc/manpath.config</filename>
+(or a file of a similar name depending on your distribution)
+or adjust the environment variables
+<envar>MANPATH</envar> and <envar>MANSECT</envar>.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+As with any other &tde; ioslave, it is possible to enter a &URL;, like
+<userinput><command>man:socket</command></userinput> in <emphasis>any</emphasis>
+&tde; application. Try it in &kwrite; and you will see the man page in
+&HTML; format.
