Hello,

Please, provide info about the following segment:

'packageDirManDoc': '<TWBSQ>A folder that is full of man pages. Sugar to generate a "man" array by walking the folder.</TWBSQ>',

1) Explain the term "man pages".

2) Explain and rephrase the second sentence.

Thanks!

That is the string that comes directly from the package.json documentation:

https://docs.npmjs.com/files/package.json#directoriesman

'man' pages refers to manual pages (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man_page) like those from Linux (man command from the console).

I don't think we should reword this since it is the 'official' documentation from NPM itself.

Closing as worksforme.
