See The MAN page for the last command
$ man !!
$ man !!:0
This works in bash. The "!!:0" limits the argument to man to be only
the first word of the last command. "!!:1" would be the second, etc.
EX:
arul@arul-desktop:~$ ls | wc
17 17 153
arul@arul-desktop:~$ man !!:0
man ls
arul@arul-desktop:~$ ls | wc
17 17 153
arul@arul-desktop:~$ man !!:1
man |
arul@arul-desktop:~$ ls | wc
17 17 153
arul@arul-desktop:~$ man !!:2
man wc
