| From: Howard Gibson via talk <talk@gtalug.org> | I am working on a Perl app, and I have written a man page for it. I | do not expect to learn groff ever. I can hack something that seems | to work. You just have to take a sample man page and hack it into your man page. Until you need to do something tricky. I assume that there is some perl convention for documentation (POD?), but I'm not emersed in that culture. | How many people are limited to 80 columns. You are being sarcastic, right? | Please note that I have problems with wide web pages. I have my | 1080p internet screen divided between my browser, my email and my | FVWM buttons. A lot of web pages do not fit in the space I leave | them. I hate them. HTML has been a battleground between purists who think rendering is the business of the, uhh, renderer (i.e. on the client side) and the "designers" who are sure that they need control. Both have a point but the wrong side has been winning for 20 years. Heaven help you if you are vision-impaired or you are trying to view on an uncommon device or with a minority browser. Buy an UltraHD TV or monitor. Or put your buttons on the bottom (I hate that because the normal aspect ratios are too wide so putting buttons on the bottom makes that even worse).
