2025-11-09src/bin/grepc, man/man1/grepc.1: -r: Remove flagAlejandro Colomar1-5/+0
Colorizing is imperfect, so don't do it. Let the user colorize it by piping to grep(1), if needed. Signed-off-by: Alejandro Colomar <alx@kernel.org>
2025-11-03man/man1/grepc{,_c}.1: Split documentation into a manual page for the driverAlejandro Colomar2-102/+157
I've left grepc_mk undocumented for the moment, as it's still not as stable as the C driver. Signed-off-by: Alejandro Colomar <alx@kernel.org>

2025-06-11man/man1/iconv.1: Mention that -c does not change exit statusFlorian Weimer1-1/+6
And that input decoding failures are treated as errors. Exiting with status 0 is a POSIX conformance issue that was fixed in glibc 2.41.

2025-05-06man/, CREDITS: Move in-source contribution records to CREDITSAlejandro Colomar6-11/+3
This information is better placed in the git logs, not in the source code itself. For people interested in the old history of pages, before we used git, they will probably look at old versions of these pages, like for example man-pages-1.70, or the 'prehistory' branch, and there they'll find these notes. Keep the names and emails of contributors in a new CREDITS file.

2025-01-11src/bin/diffman, man/man1/diffman: Remove programAlejandro Colomar1-55/+0

2024-11-17man/: Terminology consistency reforms (n, size, length)Alejandro Colomar1-2/+2
Use 'length' for the lenght of a string. Use 'n' for the number of elements. Use 'size' for the number of bytes. (And in wide-character string functions, 'size' also refers to the number of wide characters.) The change is quite large, and I might have made some mistakes. But overall, this should improve consistency in use of these terms. Signed-off-by: Alejandro Colomar <alx@kernel.org>

The root of the repository is becoming a bit overpopulated and unorganized, due to the recent addition of more mandirs, and more informative and configuration files too. Let's create a specific mandir <man/> that contains the mandirs <man[1-8]*>. Signed-off-by: Alejandro Colomar <alx.manpages@gmail.com>
