I'm sorry, I tried to be cute and failed :$ This is not official name for documentation files that are meant for inclusion and not as standalone manpages. I think they are similar to 'partial templates' http://guides.rubyonrails.org/layouts_and_rendering.html#using-partials - usually just called "partials" - hence my use of this name. Example: date-formats.txt included in git-commit(1), git-commit-tree(1) and git-tag(1). > On Wed, May 28, 2014 at 11:53 AM, Jakub Narębski <jnareb@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> W dniu 2014-05-27 19:16, Pasha Bolokhov pisze: [...] >>> I suggest this.
