valueprintHelpForTopic :: Tool -> Maybe Topic -> IO ()

Print plain text help for this tool. Takes an optional topic argument for convenience but it is currently ignored.

valuerunManForTopic :: Tool -> Maybe Topic -> IO ()

Display a man page for this tool, scrolled to the given topic if provided, using "man". When a topic is provided we force man to use "less", ignoring $MANPAGER and $PAGER.

valuerunInfoForTopic :: Tool -> Maybe Topic -> IO ()

Display an info manual for this topic, opened at the given topic if provided, using the "info" executable in $PATH. Topic can be an exact heading or a heading prefix; info will favour an exact match.

valuerunPagerForTopic :: Tool -> Maybe Topic -> IO ()

Display plain text help for this tool, scrolled to the given topic if any, using the users $PAGER or "less". When a topic is provided we always use less, ignoring $PAGER.

This is less robust than the newer Hledger.Utils.IO.runPager, but that one doesn't yet support scrolling to a topic.
