Search

# Manned.org is made for humans.
#
# I've no interest in making it findable through search engines, either. The
# burden of getting millions of man pages crawled is really rather high on my
# poor little server.
#
# If you're interested in full-text search through man pages or have a similar
# data mining project, I provide downloads of the entire database for free.
# Check out https://manned.org/info/about for info.
#
# If you're more interested in a real-time API, do get in touch, we may be
# able to work something out.

# As long as they can keep their crawl rate to acceptable levels.
