Hi,
could you please add the manpage file for otter-browser ?
"otter-browser" "1" "05. Feb. 2014" "man page by Malcolm J Lewis"
you can download the file from:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/nx20w2odspi795h/otter-browser.1?dl=0
Mod edit: also see https://github.com/Emdek/otter/issues/518
So it repeats the contents of otter-browser --help?
I actually think that all Linux apps should, as a minimum, repeat the --help contents as man page, even though a more elaborate man page would always be cooler. I hope it gets integrated in the next release :)
@ersi, yeah, it surely needs more contents.
Note the existence of a tool called help2man, which automates the creation of this kind of man page.
A man page is a required component for Debian packaging, so this is one of the last major obstacles. One possible DRY-style solution could be to edit the man page on the Otter wiki, and to then automatically convert it to a man page using Pandoc. This could also be used to generate an HTML help file for use within the program.
@Frenzie, I would prefer to keep CMakeLists.txt clean, and man files don't change often enough to justify direct use of external commands to automate this. ;-)
It seems that there is variable for setting man directory after all, CMAKE_INSTALL_MANDIR.
I'll run some tests later.
Sounds good. :)
