Writing manual pages on Linux
|
|
It's a very common fact that nobody likes to write documentation. Heck, nobody likes to read it either. But there are times when we have to read it in order to, say, finish the project on time, or, especially when working in software development, even write it. If you only have to read it, we always encouraged you to do so, but if you'll have to write the manual pages and need a kickstart, here's the article for you. If you worked previously with HTML your life will be easier, but if not it's alright. Writing manual pages for Linux is not that hard, despite the look of the pages when read in plain-text. So basically you'll need some Linux knowledge and the ability to use a text editor. You will learn (with examples, of course) the main concepts in text formatting as applied to man pages and how to write a simple manual page.
