//po4a: entry man manual
////
Please don't treat this file as a real man page! We provide it only to show how
things should be formatted. Besides this example file, see the existing .adoc
files for many more formatting options.
The first line above is a hint for po4a that the :man manual: entry needs
to be translated.
As you can see here, use //// to write comment blocks. For a single comment
line, just use //.
Please don't wrap lines within a paragraph. Our translation tool po4a behaves
a bit unpredictable in such cases.
We also urgently recommend to test the creation of the *roff file to see possible
issues.
