Detailed Descriptionno-api

The format that prints the help page information formatted for a man page to std::cout.

The help page printing is not done immediately, because the user might not provide meta information, positional options, etc. in the correct order. In addition the needed order would be different from the parse format. Thus the calls are stored (parser_set_up_calls and positional_option_calls) and only evaluated when calling seqan3::detail::format_help_base::parse.

Parameters

[in] str The input string to format in bold.

Returns: The string str wrapped in bold formatting.

void seqan3::detail::format_man::print_line	(	std::string const &	text,
		bool const	line_is_paragraph
	)

no-apiinlineprivate

Prints a help page section in man page format to std::cout.

Parameters

[in]	text	The text to print.
[in]	line_is_paragraph	Whether to insert as paragraph or just a line (only one line break if not a paragraph).
