go-md2man - Man Page

Convert markdown files into manpages

Synopsis

go-md2man [-in=/path/to/md/file] [-out=/path/to/output]

Description

go-md2man converts standard markdown formatted documents into manpages. It is written purely in Go so as to reduce dependencies on 3rd party libs.

By default, the input is stdin and the output is stdout.

Options

-in=file

Path to markdown file to be processed.

Defaults to stdin.

-out=file

Path to output processed file.

Defaults to stdout.

Examples

Convert the markdown file go-md2man.1.md into a manpage:

go-md2man < go-md2man.1.md > go-md2man.1

Same, but using command line arguments instead of shell redirection:

go-md2man -in=go-md2man.1.md -out=go-md2man.1
