It's more maintainable, standardized, semantic, and allows us to seperate presentation from content (want to change how something appears? just change one line in the parser rather than fixing up the 500 or so man pages you already have!)

17:45.00 brlcad Ashish101: they're all in the bin directory of a binary install
17:45.07 brlcad 400+ of them
17:45.38 brlcad if you have an install "locate mged" or "which mged" might help point you, but it's usually in /usr/brlcad/bin or /usr/brlcad/rel-7.XX.XX/bin

17:52.10 brlcad YatharthROCK: refering to remote transfer is too complicated
17:52.37 brlcad doesn't have to be the example I gave, but keep it really simple
17:52.42 brlcad and something "useful"
17:53.13 YatharthROCK brlcad, I could maybe just say, "Transfer file to non-Unix machine" as that's one of the main purposes of the command.
17:53.20 Ashish101 brlcad: any way for windows ??
17:53.57 YatharthROCK Ashish101, Just use the search functionality, right?
17:54.42 Ashish101 Oh yes got them

17:56.34 YatharthROCK Ashish101, You can even use piping using `dir /s /b "c:\Program Files" | find "mged.exe"`
17:57.29 Ashish101 but still that dosent give info on the commansd -- does it ??
17:57.48 Ashish101 thanks for the help thoug PathatROCK
17:58.27 YatharthROCK Ashish101, Putting the handle in the beginning lets you hit Tab for autocomplete in most clients and also notifies the user
17:58.57 YatharthROCK Ashish101, I didn't understand what you meant by ' but still that doesn't give info on the command -- does it ??' though...
17:59.38 Ashish101 i also want to know about the commands meaning what it does and all
18:00.56 YatharthROCK brlcad, I not inclined to use your example as it's kinda' extraneous. Why would anyone have a pix(5) file encoded in ASCII in the first place? That main purpose (and only that I know of, please correct me if I'm wrong) is for easy transfer. Maybe I could replace the commands with a generic message like "Transfer file to another (non-Unix) machine"
18:01.45 YatharthROCK Ashish101, That's a different question. You'll have to use the online documentation, I think. I'm not very familiar with Windows. It's much easier to just use Linux.
