Heck, it's easier to apologize than ask permission, so sorry in advance if this
is in the wrong newsgroup.

You can see what I'm looking for.  I've installed gcc and mingw for C packages
on my computer, but I am having trouble doing manual lookups for header files
like string.h, or functions like srandom.  Man is installed.  I use it
occasionally to look up command line arguments for gcc.

I'm a beginning developer, and a newbie linux user.  GUI is easy, and moving
away from DOS was something I dreaded when I was first introduced to NT-based
Operating Systems, so I'm really stuck here.

Do those manual pages appear in any packages, or is there a way I can install
them... ahem... manually?

Thanks in advance,

Matthew Pemrich (Digitalsabre)
