How to view documentation for an installed library?

rated 0 times [ 3] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 3196 / 3 Years ago, fri, july 23, 2021, 6:38:04

I installed doxygen and doxygen-doc. The man page for doxygen tells me to get doxygen-doc for more information.
I found the doxygen-doc in my usr/share/doc, but its a compressed archive. So how can I access it conveniently?

You don't state the version of Ubuntu you use, but for Trusty, there's a PDF manual in /usr/share/doc/doxygen/doxygen_manual.pdf.

There's also HTML documentation here: /usr/share/doc/doxygen/html/index.html

I can't spot a compressed archive besides the changelog (/usr/share/doc/doxygen-doc/changelog.Debian.gz) that you'd look at using zless.
