It's linked from the man page. https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/systemd.1.html https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/systemd.1.html
Unfortunately the reading will still need to do ourselves. Not trying to be snarky here, it happens to me all the time that I have not read something and complain it's hard to understand.
- bosie 5y agoI think what OP means is that having good documentation should not require you to read a blog of any sorts, even if it is linked in the man page. Either documentation is good OR you read the blog, you cannot have both.
- jcelerier 5y agoI disagree, for instance in a man page I don't want to read the rationale for something (which the blog provides), just the raw "if you do this, then that will happen". That would have its place in a GNU info book instead.
- zozbot234 5y agoPlenty of man pages have a dedicated RATIONALE section. You don't have to read it, but the stuff is documented.
