okay so bestie, welcome to manual(1) β€” straight outta the General Commands Manual, and it's giving documentation generator energy. No cap, this one is here to generate manual pages for the command(s) you give it. ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

manual β€” Generate manual page for the given command(s) πŸŽ€

πŸ’– SYNOPSIS πŸ’–

manual [-d|--dir] [-h|--help] [CMDS]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Generate manual page for the given command(s).

okay so the whole vibe is: this command lets you generate a manual page (following the man page format) for a given command. The page is printed to the standard output, so it can be written to a file using unix redirection. Giving a directory instead writes one page per command in it, creating the directory if it does not exist. slay. πŸ’…

πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -d, --dir <PATH> β€” Save manual pages to the given directory. πŸ—‚οΈ
  • -h, --help β€” Print help (see a summary with '-h'). πŸ™‹
  • [CMDS] β€” Command(s) for which manual page should be generated for. πŸ‘‘

A command is named after its manual page: the program name for the main page, the program name followed by a dash and the subcommand name for a subcommand one. Defaults to every command, which requires a directory. 🫢
