manly
Project description
# manly
manly is a compliment to man pages.
It's a lot like [explainshell](https://explainshell.com) (don't worry, that is explain-shell, not explains-hell).
Use manly, when you want to know how flags modify a commands' behaviour.
Let's say your good friend has a funky alias in [his dotfiles](https://github.com/8Banana/dotfiles/blob/master/__Myst__/.zshrc): `alias alert="notify-send -i terminal -t 5 'Alert from Terminal!'"`.
manly to the rescue:
``` bash
$ manly notify-send -it
notify-send - a program to send desktop notifications
=====================================================
-t, --expire-time=TIME
The duration, in milliseconds, for the notification to appear on screen.
(Ubuntu's Notify OSD and GNOME Shell both ignore this parameter.)
-i, --icon=ICON[,ICON...]
Specifies an icon filename or stock icon to display.
```
Short and sweet!
## Installation
manly supports Python 2 and 3
$ pip install manly
and you can always remove it with
$ pip uninstall manly
## Develop with me :)
Ideas, contributions and everything else is welcome!
```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/Zaab1t/manly
$ cd manly
$ virtualenv venv
$ . venv/bin/activate
$ python manly.py
```
