- eviks 3y agoAll of the basics of anything google-like: typo-friendliness with word forms and phrases, links to source, formatting of output, GUI, or not spamming the output with a dozen of lines of warnings that some man page files are missing. Then a bunch more degrees that I could know about if the tool were more usable
- BLanen 3y agoYes. I mostly use man pages when I already basically know the program and need to do specific thing. Even then I don't use man itself but usually a webpage of the manfile because of UX.
