gwibber needs a man page

[Scott Wegner]

Gwibber seems to be lacking a man page. Moreover, it also doesn't accept a "--help" parameter on the command-line, so it seems almost impossible to find help on CLI syntax.

I realized this when I was hoping to find a switch to start minimized (to launch at startup), but couldn't find anything. This is another issue entirely, but the more important thing is having user documentation-- especially a man page.

Indeed. Problem reproduced with 0.7~bzr151~hardy~ppa0.

[Andreas Streim (webmail-streim)]

Yeah, I also would like an option to start minimized...

This bug is about the man page.

I have opened a new bug regarding the option to start Gwibber minimized as bug 325051

Thanks.

[Greg Grossmeier (greg.grossmeier)]

Attached is a first draft man page.

To view it formatted correctly do:

nroff -man gwibber.1

Comments/Suggestions welcome.

If someone who is familiar with packaging/etc could tell me where this file is supposed to go, that'd be great.

[Greg Grossmeier (greg.grossmeier)]

Available for packagers in lp:gwibber

[Greg Grossmeier (greg.grossmeier)]

in lp:gwibber/1.0 now too.
