Сжатие страниц документации man и info

Программы чтения Man и info могут прозрачно обрабатывать страницы, сжатые gzip или bzip2, за счет чего вы можете освободить некоторое дисковое пространство, оставив вашу документацию доступной. Хотя это не просто; директории man содержат ссылки—жесткие и символические —которые срывают такие простые идеи, как рекурсивный вызов gzip на них. Лучший путь для этого - использование скрипта, описанного ниже.

#
# Compress (with bzip2 or gzip) all man pages in a hierarchy and
# update symlinks - By Marc Heerdink <marc @ koelkast.net>
#
# Modified to be able to gzip or bzip2 files as an option and to deal
# with all symlinks properly by Mark Hymers <markh @ linuxfromscratch.org>
#
# Modified 20030930 by Yann E. Morin <yann.morin.1998 @ anciens.enib.fr>
# to accept compression/decompression, to correctly handle hard-links,
# to allow for changing hard-links into soft- ones, to specify the
# compression level, to parse the man.conf for all occurrences of MANPATH,
# to allow for a backup, to allow to keep the newest version of a page.
#
# Modified 20040330 by Tushar Teredesai to replace $0 by the name of the 
# script.
#   (Note: It is assumed that the script is in the user's PATH)
#
# Modified 20050112 by Randy McMurchy to shorten line lengths and
# correct grammar errors.
#
# TODO:
#     - choose a default compress method to be based on the available
#       tool : gzip or bzip2;
#     - offer an option to automagically choose the best compression 
#       methed on a per page basis (eg. check which of 
#       gzip/bzip2/whatever is the most effective, page per page);
#     - when a MANPATH env var exists, use this instead of /etc/man.conf
#       (useful for users to (de)compress their man pages;
#     - offer an option to restore a previous backup;
#     - add other compression engines (compress, zip, etc?). Needed?

# Funny enough, this function prints some help.

  cat << EOT
Where comp_method is one of :
  --gzip, --gz, -g
  --bzip2, --bz2, -b
                Compress using gzip or bzip2.

  --decompress, -d
                Decompress the man pages.

  --backup      Specify a .tar backup shall be done for all directories.
                In case a backup already exists, it is saved as .tar.old 
                prior to making the new backup. If a .tar.old backup 
                exists, it is removed prior to saving the backup.
                In backup mode, no other action is performed.

And where options are :
  -1 to -9, --fast, --best
                The compression level, as accepted by gzip and bzip2. 
                When not specified, uses the default compression level 
                for the given method (-6 for gzip, and -9 for bzip2). 
                Not used when in backup or decompress modes.

  --force, -F   Force (re-)compression, even if the previous one was 
                the same method. Useful when changing the compression 
                ratio. By default, a page will not be re-compressed if 
                it ends with the same suffix as the method adds 
                (.bz2 for bzip2, .gz for gzip).

  --soft, -S    Change hard-links into soft-links. Use with _caution_ 
                as the first encountered file will be used as a 
                reference. Not used when in backup mode.

  --hard, -H    Change soft-links into hard-links. Not used when in 
                backup mode.

  --conf=dir, --conf dir
                Specify the location of man.conf. Defaults to /etc.

  --verbose, -v Verbose mode, print the name of the directory being 
                processed. Double the flag to turn it even more verbose, 
                and to print the name of the file being processed.

  --fake, -f    Fakes it. Print the actual parameters compman will use.

  dirs          A list of space-separated _absolute_ pathnames to the 
                man directories. When empty, and only then, parse 
                ${MAN_CONF}/man.conf for all occurrences of MANPATH.

Note about compression:
  There has been a discussion on blfs-support about compression ratios of
  both gzip and bzip2 on man pages, taking into account the hosting fs,
  the architecture, etc... On the overall, the conclusion was that gzip
  was much more efficient on 'small' files, and bzip2 on 'big' files, 
  small and big being very dependent on the content of the files.

  See the original post from Mickael A. Peters, titled 
  "Bootable Utility CD", dated 20030409.1816(+0200), and subsequent posts:
  http://linuxfromscratch.org/pipermail/blfs-support/2003-April/038817.html

  On my system (x86, ext3), man pages were 35564KB before compression. 
  gzip -9 compressed them down to 20372KB (57.28%), bzip2 -9 got down to 
  19812KB (55.71%). That is a 1.57% gain in space. YMMV.

  What was not taken into consideration was the decompression speed. But 
  does it make sense to? You gain fast access with uncompressed man 
  pages, or you gain space at the expense of a slight overhead in time. 
  Well, my P4-2.5GHz does not even let me notice this... :-)

Теперь, как root, вы можете выполнить compressdoc --bz2 для сжатия всех ваших страниц man. Вы можете так же запустить compressdoc --help для получения помощи о том, что этот скрипт может делать.

Не забудте так же, что некоторые программы, например X Window System и XEmacs, устанавливают свою документацию в нестандартные места (такие как /usr/X11R6/man и т.д.). Убедитесь, что добавили эти места в файл /etc/man.conf как секцию MANPATH=[/path].

Пример:

    ...
    MANPATH=/usr/share/man
    MANPATH=/usr/local/man
    MANPATH=/usr/X11R6/man
    MANPATH=/opt/qt/doc/man
    ...

Обычно системы установки пакетов не сжимают страницы man/info, что означает, что вам необходимо будет опять запустить скрипт, если вы хотите иметь минимальный размер вашей документации. Так же заметьте, что запуск скрипта после обновления пакета является безопасным; когда вы имеете несколько версий страницы (например, одна сжатая и одна нет), более вероятно, что одна останется, а другая удалится.
