Man pages are amazing, the day I learned how to read command syntax me y understanding of linux skyrocketed.
what’s wrong with man pages?
The internet is full of bad advice.
Man pages are never wrong.
I’m so fucking sick of every Linux meme being negative… Like are we supporting the community or actively trying to sabotage it?
Fuxk all these memes
Linux makes the word turn
Learn it and support it
This all started as irony, but it has gone too far
Regroup and get creative you sad intelligent fucks
Hey, I always check man pages, they are pretty usefull
This is how you end up being bullied by hyenas
I get confused every time I install a distro and man isn’t installed by default. I guess I get the bare minimum philosophy, but it throws me off every time. First thing I install is vim, man, git, and probably a couple other things I can’t remember right now.
I do like a decent man page that has examples for us dummies and I have found that they have improved a lot over the years.
There are distros that don’t install man by default? Crazy.
Reading man pages is a skill of it’'s own and the quality of man pages vary. However the ways of figuring out how to do something. ‘Command -h’ or ‘command --help’ ‘man command’ Search online for ‘command examples’.
Man pages are great to have, all documentation easily accessible, mostly complete and directly available in your terminal.
Compare this to the shitshow that is
git --help
in windows opening a stupid browser. Somebody should be defenestrated for that decission.alias git="DISPLAY= git"
