- Description
- An MP3 file is an audio file saved in a compressed audio format developed by the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) that uses "Layer 3" audio compression. It is commonly used to store music and audiobooks with near-CD quality sound (stereo, 16-bit) and roughly 1/10 the size of a .WAV or .AIF file.
- 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.
