man <cmd> >> cmd.txt
I've noticed most of my postings here are because of syntax errors.
So I want to begin compiling a large txt file that contains all the "man <cmd>" of the commands I most have problems with. I ran a "man nawk >> nawk.txt" but it included a header/footer on each "page". Anyone know how I'd be able to retrieve a "man" but in an easier-to-read format (after redirecting it into a txt file). This way I won't run into as many syntax errors as I do now.
