- Description
- A Unix Manual Page (.man) file contains documentation text formatted with troff/groff macros, typically using the man or mdoc macro package. These files are the source for the 'man' command documentation system used on Unix and Unix-like operating systems. They describe commands, system calls, library functions, and other system components.
- Textile is a lightweight markup language that uses simple text formatting conventions to generate structured HTML. It is commonly used in content management systems, wikis, and forums for writing formatted text without directly using HTML tags. Files with the .textile extension contain plain text written using this markup syntax.
