- ronn -- the opposite of roff
2
- ============================
3
-
4
- ## DESCRIPTION
5
-
6
- Ronn is a text format and toolchain for creating UNIX manpages. It converts
7
- markdown to standard UNIX roff manpages and formatted HTML manuals for the web.
8
-
9
- The source format includes all of Markdown but has a more rigid structure and
10
- includes extensions that provide features commonly found in manpages (definition
11
- lists, link notation, etc.). The ronn(5) manual page defines the format in
12
- detail.
13
-
14
- ## DOCUMENTATION
15
-
16
- The `.ronn` files located under the `man/` directory show off a wide range of
17
- ronn capabilities and are the source of Ronn's own documentation. The source
18
- files and generated HTML / roff output files are available at:
19
-
20
- * [ronn(1)](http://rtomayko.github.com/ronn/ronn.1) -
21
- convert markdown files to manpages.<br>
22
- [source file](http://github.com/rtomayko/ronn/blob/master/man/ronn.1.ronn),
23
- [roff output](http://github.com/rtomayko/ronn/blob/master/man/ronn.1)
24
-
25
- * [ronn(5)](http://rtomayko.github.com/ronn/ronn.5) -
26
- markdown-based text format for authoring manpages<br>
27
- [source file](http://github.com/rtomayko/ronn/blob/master/man/ronn.5.ronn),
28
- [roff output](http://github.com/rtomayko/ronn/blob/master/man/ronn.5)

30
- ## INSTALL
31
-
32
- Install with Rubygems:
33
-
34
- $ [sudo] gem install ronn
35
- $ ronn --help
36
-
37
- Or, clone the git repository:
38
-
39
- $ git clone git://github.com/rtomayko/ronn.git
40
- $ PATH=ronn/bin:$PATH
41
- $ ronn --help
42
-
43
- ## BASIC USAGE
44
-
45
- Build roff and HTML output files for one or more input files:
46
-
47
- $ ronn man/ronn.5.ronn
48
- roff: man/ronn.5
49
- html: man/ronn.5.html
50
-
51
- View a roff manpage with man(1):
52
-
53
- $ man man/ronn.5
54
-
55
- Generate only a standalone HTML version of one or more files:
56
-
57
- $ ronn --html man/markdown.5.ronn
58
- html: man/markdown.5.html
59
-
60
- Build roff versions of all ronn files in a directory:
61
-
62
- $ ronn --roff man/*.ronn
63
-
64
- View a ronn file as if it were a manpage without building intermediate files:
65
-
66
- $ ronn --man man/markdown.5.ronn
67
-
68
- The [ronn(1)](http://rtomayko.github.com/ronn/ronn.1) manual page includes
69
- comprehensive documentation on `ronn` command line options.

71
- ## ABOUT
72
-
73
- Some people say UNIX manual pages are a poor and outdated style of
74
- documentation. I disagree:
75
-
76
- - Man pages follow a well defined structure that's immediately familiar. This
77
- provides developers with a useful starting point when documenting new tools,
78
- libraries, and formats.
79
-
80
- - Man pages get to the point. Because they're written in an inverted style, with
81
- a SYNOPSIS section followed by additional detail, prose and references to
82
- other sources of information, man pages provide the best of both cheat sheet
83
- and reference style documentation.
84
-
85
- - Man pages have extremely -- unbelievably -- limited text formatting
86
- capabilities. You get a couple of headings, lists, bold, underline and no
87
- more. This is a feature.
88
-
89
- - Although two levels of section hierarchy are technically supported, most man
90
- pages use only a single level. Unwieldy document hierarchies complicate
91
- otherwise good documentation. Feynman covered all of physics -- heavenly
92
- bodies through QED -- with only two levels of document hierarchy (_The Feynman
93
- Lectures on Physics_, 1970).
94
-
95
- - Man pages have a simple referencing syntax; e.g., sh(1), fork(2), markdown(7).
96
- HTML versions can use this to generate links between pages.
97
-
98
- - The classical terminal man page display is typographically well thought out.
99
- Big bold section headings, justified monospace text, nicely indented
100
- paragraphs, intelligently aligned definition lists, and an informational
101
- header and footer.
102
-
103
- Unfortunately, figuring out how to create a manpage is a fairly tedious process.
104
- The roff/man macro languages are highly extensible, fractured between multiple
105
- dialects, and include a bunch of device specific stuff irrelevant to modern
106
- publishing tools.
107
-
108
- Ronn aims to address many of the issues with manpage creation while preserving
109
- the things that makes manpages a great form of documentation.
