A lot of the time the language in man pages fine, but it could be easily clarified for first-time readers with simple examples. What is it with that? It seems to be an unwritten rule that Man Pages Shalt Not Provide Examples. Is there a good reason for this is or is it a "secret club"-type thing or something else?
EDIT: I "let me google that for you"'d myself and found this [0] right away which explains it, I guess.
