what about a man page ?
help2man could be used if nothing is available upstream
I had looked at including this package/script as part of the curl package, as I
did with the wcurl package/script, but it looked a bit too alpha/beta at the
time, and utility seemed questionable.
The `trurl` `mkrelease` shell script uses a curl package Perl script `cd2nroff`
(not in trurl package) to make their `trurl.1` manpage from their `trurl.md`
source.
If you download the Cygwin curl source package (~9MB), and have the Cygwin
lesspipe package installed, you can extract the script using for example:
`$ less
/usr/src/curl/curl-8.11.1-1.x86_64/dist/curl/curl-8.11.1-1-src.tar.xz:curl-8.11.1-1.src/curl-8.11.1.tar.xz:curl-8.11.1/scripts/cd2nroff
\
> .../scripts/cd2nroff && chmod a+rx .../scripts/cd2nroff`
or the equivalent pipe commands if not! ;^>
I asked the developers to consider including the `cd2nroff` script as part of
the trurl package to assist packagers.
