Having good `command help` is super important. Agree with the assertion that in-built help is the first and most important.
There have been so many tries to make something better than man pages, and all of them tend to fall down because the solution is usually super complex. Usually, you are dealing with html or some archeo-crontastic typesetting format (which honestly, gets you man + hyperlinks and some better formatting). I guess the dream of GNU info is still alive.
- Hnrobert42 6y agoI disagree. I never use inbuilt help and only use man pages.
- funcDropShadow 6y agoRelying on `command help` with an unknown command can be dangerous.
