From 3268f03e41d0802a3d2fe6845320b002f8ef3421 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hartmut Goebel Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2014 01:04:29 +0100 Subject: Group options by purpose and add sub-headlines for each group. The urpmi tools share a lot of options like download options, media selections and so on. Other option groups are package selection, output options (for urpmf, urpmq) and database options. Grouping them makes it easier for the user to spot what she needs. Additionally tool-specific groups will be put near the top of the options section, while common groups will be put near the end of that list, followed by rarely used stuff like debugging. This makes it easier for the user to spot the tool-specific parts. Grouping may not be perfect and some option may be in a group not matching 100 percent. But anyway this should be a fairly good state. followed --- pod/8/urpmf.pod | 136 ++++++++++++------ pod/8/urpmi.addmedia.pod | 149 +++++++++++-------- pod/8/urpmi.pod | 362 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------------------- pod/8/urpmi.update.pod | 72 +++++----- pod/8/urpmq.pod | 277 +++++++++++++++++++++--------------- 5 files changed, 585 insertions(+), 411 deletions(-) (limited to 'pod') diff --git a/pod/8/urpmf.pod b/pod/8/urpmf.pod index bff688d0..d63c7993 100644 --- a/pod/8/urpmf.pod +++ b/pod/8/urpmf.pod @@ -32,69 +32,57 @@ Prints a help message and exits.
