README for tum-manpages ======================= I'll write that in FAQ format, since I am really to lazy to write proper sections so you either grep through the file or read it completely. How to use it? -------------- You have to use GNU Make, to build it: make There you go, it creates all manpages. You can copy them whereever you want, even install it system-wide. No, I don't have a ``make install`` target. To read the pages write man -M . <manpagename> ``-M .`` adds the local directory to the search path. Lo and behold, it works on man-db (Debian, Arch, Ubuntu, what-have-you) and traditional man (Gentoo standard). Why isn't there an installation option? --------------------------------------- Because you haven't written it. Why haven't you sent me a patch yet? Who wrote all this shit? ------------------------ Use git to find out: git shortlog -s | cut -c8- Why are all pages in category 6? -------------------------------- Six is for games and I like games. Why does it need Git for building? ---------------------------------- Because I wanted it to. Git integrates nicely into the build system by providing versioning and metainformation. Why the heck do you use M4? --------------------------- Because you have it installed. Oh, not if you are using Windows, BSD or Mac OS X but I couldn't care less. Get a decent userland. Oh, and writing manpages without a macroprocessor is even more shitty than to use the downright retarded syntax of M4. What is the license? -------------------- I don't care that much, but I'm a GNU freedom-nazi, so probably something along these lines. Not that I care whether you obey the license or not.
