qBittorent man pages
|
|
===
|
|
|
|
Our man pages are written in Markdown format (.md) and we use [Pandoc](https://pandoc.org/) to
|
|
convert them to roff (the man page format).
|
|
Refer to [Pandoc's Markdown](https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#pandocs-markdown) for info
|
|
on that specific format.
|
|
|
|
To build the man pages:
|
|
```shell
|
|
pandoc -s -f markdown -t man qbittorrent.1.md -o qbittorrent.1
|
|
pandoc -s -f markdown -t man qbittorrent-nox.1.md -o qbittorrent-nox.1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
There is also an online converter you can use if you have trouble installing a
|
|
local one: [link](https://pandoc.org/try/?text=&from=markdown&to=man) \
|
|
You'll need to be careful when you copy the output to file as some headers will be missing.
|
|
Careful not to overwrite the existing leading headers or trim off the trailing headers.
|
|
|
|
Remember to commit Markdown files (\*.md) and the generated man pages (\*.1 files) after editing!
