Linux Reference Guide provides information for Linux commands. Each command shows the man page for that command.
Currently, the commands come from a Ubuntu distribution of Linux, although most commands are universal for all distributions. More specific commands from other Linux distributions will be added in future versions.
The program only gives info on 9 commands. The info was detailed but I don't think a program that explains the 9 most common commands is needed
As stated in a previous comment, it only has 9 commands. I would to see this app expanded to include as many possible commands and a search feature. Great concept!!
For a guy that needs to know the basics this is great. Everyone gives some ideas what to add and we have a great technical app!
This will be a lot more useful when there are more than 9 commands listed. Please update!
Right now, as the description says, it is sparse but if the author's HTML5 guide application is any indication in addition to the interface of the app already, it'll be an excellent app that does exactly what it says.
Just the app I was looking for, looking forward to more commands, installed the app now so I will get the update automatically. Based on the author's HTML5 reference app I have confidence. Have you considered adding native man page and info page parsing from the filesystem? Then Linux/OSX/BSD/UNIX help files could be copied* over wholesale, even by users. *Most of whom have rooted iPads so copying over by hand should be simple and keeps you clear of any potential GPL vs AppStore ToS conflict. Everyone has rooted their iPad, right?
