tldr pages ("too long didn't read") is a project to provide brief documentation for CLI commands.

Complementary to man pages and Info documentation, tldr pages provide a quick reference with examples. They can be a handy way to jog memory about basic command functionality, but don't aim to provide comprehensive documentation.

Available software

Ebuilds for two tldr pages clients are currently available in the GURU repository. See the GURU guide and emerge for installation instructions.
