Apparently, it is. That's how things came to be the way they are. We decided to standardize on asciidoc for documentation, and despite much effort it was not possible to get consistently good results in man format via automatic conversion, so mank was created. >> I don't think typing one extra letter is too bad a compromise.

The issue goes from a show-stopper for the user "Where's the documentation?!?" to a strange nuisance "When will I remember to type mank first?!?". :) -- Charles Steinkuehler [email protected] -- website: http://www.machinekit.io blog: http://blog.machinekit.io github: https://github.com/machinekit --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Machinekit" group.
