I have gcc install with this fedora 16 and tried man fread and get no manpages. Also grub seems to be different. I want to change the defaults to boot my windows by default.

ROTFL. Oh dear the troll bell has gone off. I do find it hard to believe
that you you Linux for development and yet can not get to read the news with
it. Sorry
Well I guess I don't have a grub man page. Or info pages. Commands like 'help' 'root' and so on don't work at all with grub. I have no idea what to type in the CLI.

It's not Bash's, it's "command line" printf(1), which is indeed
different from C printf(3). Consider, e. g.:

You don't say what version of Grub you have (I don't know Fedora at all)
but the current documentation can be found at:

Then go look it up somewhere. Have you never heard of Google? You can't do a little (simple) research on your own?
Who wipes your ass for you? Maybe you could ask them.
