Package: help2man (1.47.6)

[ Source: help2man  ]

Automatic manpage generator

Program to create simple man pages from the --help and --version output of other programs.

Since most GNU documentation is now in info format, this provides a way to generate a placeholder man page pointing to that resource while still providing some useful information.

Tags: Implemented in: Perl, User Interface: Command Line, Role: role::program, scope::utility, Application Suite: GNU, Purpose: Data Conversion, Supports Format: works-with-format::man, works-with::text
