# Here's a little explanation about this script:
# In order to fix long-standing Debian bug #116485, I've written a
# script that takes a KDE app, and generates a nice man page.. It uses
# the app's "--author" and "--help-all" output, along with a description
# from Debian's control file to get the data. I think the script works
# great, the man pages look almost hand-written ;) I encourage you all
# to try this out, and very much welcome any feedback, especially as to
# how to integrate this into either the Debian KDE packaging system or
# the KDE build system..
# The idea to do this with a script allows us to easily keep the man
# pages up to date, and is generally very low-trouble for the
# developer...
# The script is attached at the bottom..
# USAGE:
# Suppose you wanted to generate a man page for the KDE-Edu program
# kalzium.. Then you would
# 1 cd to /path/to/kde/srcs/tdeedu/debian ( necessary so the script
# finds the Debian control file.. )
# 2 run "/path/to/kdemangen.pl $(which kstars) > kstars.1"
# 3 run "man ./kstars.1" to check out the generated page..
# PROBLEMS:
# Only works for full KDE applications that use KCmdLineArgs (
# inherent to my approach, but most KDE apps fulfill this requirement
# )

# section it's looking at via the ".SS <SECTION>" lines. Once
# it knows, it sets a "$in_<SECTION>" variable to "1" and
# begins to write the section data into $<SECTION>. When it
# gets to a line that contains only ".SS ", it sets
# $in_<SECTION> to "0" and continues.
# It's a little messy, but it's the only way I could
# get it to work with what little knowledge I had.
# This is the first time I've used Perl. Be kind.
