Man page

I found much useful by using this man page.
Man pages (short for "manual pages") are the extensive documentation that comes preinstalled with almost all substantial Unix and Unix-like operating systems. The Unix command used to display them is man. Each page is a self-contained document.   

To read a manual page for a Unix command, one can use
 man


Ubuntu Manpage Repository 
This site contains hundreds of thousands of dynamically generated manuals, extracted from every package of every supported version of Ubuntu, and updated on a daily basis
