NAME

       kdemangen.pl - automatically create a draft manpage for a KDE app

SYNOPSIS

       kdemangen.pl /path/to/application

DESCRIPTION

       kdemangen.pl will automatically create a draft manpage for a KDE application.  Manpages are always better
       when hand-tailored, but this should give you a fairly good start.

       To create the manpage, it will use the --author and --help-all output for the application passed  on  the
       command  line.  It will also use the description in the Debian control file if one is available.  To make
       use of this additional feature, you must run kdemangen.pl from within the  debian/  subdirectory  of  the
       application sources.

       The new manpage will be written to standard output.

       This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit.

WARNING

       This  utility  will  only  work  for  a  full KDE application that uses KCmdLineArgs (which most full KDE
       applications do).

EXAMPLE

              cd /path/to/kde/srcs/kdeedu/debian
              kdemangen /usr/bin/kstars > kstars.1
