About stdman

stdman parses archived cppreference HTML files and generates groff-formatted manual pages for C++ standard library features. The pages can be installed locally and looked up with the system man command.

The project has been tested on Linux and macOS. It can also generate pages from local reference files if you want to build or modify the documentation yourself.

Strengths

  • Makes C++ standard library documentation available through man pages
  • Can generate pages from archived reference files
  • Tested on Linux and macOS

Limitations

  • Generating or modifying pages requires local cppreference HTML files.
