Accessing HP-UX Linker Online Help
To access the Linker online help on a system on which the HP-UX Linker is installed, enter the
following command:
/usr/ccs/bin/ld +help
This command opens a web browser and displays the main page of the HP-UX Linker online
help system.
If the browser path set by the BROWSER environment variable does not exist, or if the default
browser paths /opt/mozilla/mozilla, /opt/ns-navgold/bin/netscape or /opt/
ns-communicator/netscape do not exist, the system displays a message that the BROWSER
environment variable must be set properly.
