- zackmorris 7y agoWow that's pretty great. There are so many powerful console utilities with overly opaque manuals that make them hard to jump into when you just want to do a simple thing. Compare these for example: http://cht.sh/jq http://cht.sh/jq https://www.systutorials.com/docs/linux/man/1-jq/ https://www.systutorials.com/docs/linux/man/1-jq/
- fiatjaf 7y agoThe jq manual is very very good.
- pgwhalen 7y agoCompletely agreed. I find my jq answers there more than anywhere else, and I am continually amazed by its balance between accessibility and thoroughness. I would also say though that this cheat sheet looks great as well - cheat sheets absolutely have their place next manuals.

- ausjke 7y agoamazing, just tested it out, i hope it can add devdocs.io support, and update vim plugin to newer ones. this will likely replace my tldr soon
- ausjke 7y agoI have yet to see node.js API support from any REPL or shell or vim or tldr, the only option is access it from browser, which is not enough. https://zealdocs.org https://zealdocs.org is another great source, similar to https://devdocs.io https://devdocs.io
- toomim 7y agoGrandparent just showed how to use it on the command-line, with curl.
- SamBam 7y agoAwesome. It looks like for the shell commands it uses content straight from TLDR, right? e.g. http://cht.sh/tar http://cht.sh/tar
- streb-lo 7y agoFor .bash/.zshrc: function cht() { curl cht.sh/$1 }
- GordonS 7y agoBeen using this for years, it's great! Note that https://cheat.sh https://cheat.sh works too (I find that easier to remember than cht.sh)
- ivanfon 7y agoThank you, this is amazing! Simple ZSH/Bash function if anyone wants it: cheat () { curl "cheat.sh/$1" }

- hyperpallium 7y agoHow can I remove the colors from the output? It's hard to read on mobile (termux).
- pauldino 7y agoAside from things like ansifilter you can add a ?style=bw parameter to remove the colors, e.g. $ curl cht.sh/ls?style=bw Or if you do like colors but not the defaults you can try other styles, see http://cht.sh/:styles http://cht.sh/:styles
- bostonvaulter2 7y agoLooks nice, although a benefit of tldr is that it can download the database so all when you look up a command it's not making a network request (which is good for both privacy and speed/reliability)
