It shouldn't be a hassle at all to convert a man page to a UI that speeds up actions and avoids common errors.
Anyway, this idea is free, so feel free to take it and do whatever, even full HTML (:
- slightwinder 5y agoI don't see how yet another ui-definition-format will help to make things simpler. And what UI does a manpage need? Manpages are documents, they have no real ui.
- jjnoakes 5y agoI think op meant covering a man page for a command into a gui for the command, not into a gui for the man page.
