Helpman in Breadstick

Breadstick runs Debian's own helpman package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs, so Helpman should look and behave as it does on a Linux PC. On Samsung DeX, Floating mode opens it as its own window beside your Android apps, and Desktop mode runs it on a full Linux desktop.

Utilities work with the files in your Linux home folder and, once Device files is granted, with your Android folders too. More about utilities in Breadstick.

About Helpman

From the project's description

Helpman provides a classified access to the manuals, installed by user/system programs, automatically. It also supports typing a program / manual name, in the Select Manual: text / combo box directly, to display it quickly. Error Messages will be shown below, if a manual is not found.

The Manual Type list box, shows sections 1 to 8, useful for specific display of a version of the manual. Say for example, if you see, CRON(8) in a manual, it means the CRON manual in the 8th section. So users should choose appropriately.

Please click the info button for more details.
