Team,
What do others think of this question?
If all our *nix users would benefit from it, I'm all for (--but I'm not all
too familiar with the syntax of manpages... yet ;-) Is the format generic
enough to be supported by all *nix platforms, or would we have to write
separate ones for Debian / RedHat / OS X etc.)
Downside of course is yet another piece of the package to maintain (albeit
maybe a small one)
Greetz,
Andreas
+1 I'm all about documentation. I don't know if there are multiple formats though.
FWIW, here're a couple of Man Page HowTos:
