# Jifty::Script::Help(3pm)

Show help

## NAME

Jifty::Script::Help - Show help

## SYNOPSIS

```
 help COMMAND
```

## OPTIONS

Optionally help can pipe through a pager, to make it easier to read the output if it is too long. For using this feature, please set environment variable PAGER to some pager program. For example:

```
    # bash, zsh users
    export PAGER='/usr/bin/less'
    # tcsh users
    setenv PAGER '/usr/bin/less'
```

### help\_base

Jifty's help system also looks in Jifty::Manual and the subdirectories for any help commands that it can't find help for.
