    If you're using arch, you shouldn't need man pages. Because you use arch, BTW.

          Your English is fine. The same words often evoke different mental images from one person to another. Sometimes I have trouble distinguishing when to embrace literal meanings and when to go with the general gist of words. Thanks for addressing my comment, a gentle reminder for me.

              I understood your point fine. I indeed started out with first Commodore BASIC and then into 6502, all using the manuals because there wasn't much else of a source back then.

              Thank you, kindly. I've heard that manuals where fun to use (sarcasm). Unfortunately, I am old enough to remember those days, but wasn't fortunate enough to own or even be able to witness such gems in real life.

                Is this supposed to be a joke or have we truly gotten to the point where ... coding in a terminal via like hyprland or w/e, without relying on an what is basically an annoying tutorial character from a video game that acts as an assistant...

                This is psycopathy?

                    I think he means HyperTerminal. It was the predecessor to Putty basically for serial connections.

                      I'm literally designing some code now and realized that I used DuckDuckGo to find man pages for system calls... from my Arch laptop. 😑

                                  If it was man pages then they were likely scripting not coding. 🤷‍♀️

                                        I can still do this provided that the language is Perl. But the few cases when I actually have to do so are rare, and never in public.
