The mdoc markup makes for a more semantic and less formatting heavy syntax Includes a number of improvements: - List all options in alphabetic order - Split out the synopsis for commands that has to be run by themselves - Move the scsimon Usage helptext from the app to the man page - Corrections of typos and updates of outdated information
This will reduce the recurring maintenance overhead of keeping the same information up to date in multiple places Only the most common use cases are covered in the usage help text now
