## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

cppman provides C++ manual pages for Unix-like systems, sourcing reference material from cplusplus.com and cppreference.com.

### Projektgeschichte

The upstream README notes that the project was renamed from manpages-cpp to cppman on September 19, 2012. It presents cppman as a command-line interface for C++ reference pages with a man-like workflow.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

Upstream documents installation through PyPI, Arch Linux AUR, Debian and Ubuntu, Homebrew, and MacPorts, showing broad package-manager adoption for a small documentation utility.

### Wie es verwendet wird

cppman supports cplusplus.com and cppreference.com backends, syntax highlighting, hyperlink navigation in vim pager mode, and an option to expose cached pages to the system man command.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

cppman appeals to package users because it turns web-first C++ references into local terminal documentation, a familiar Unix packaging pattern for developers who want offline or shell-native lookup.

### Zeitleiste

- 2012-09-19: manpages-cpp was renamed to cppman.
- Current packaging: Upstream README documents PyPI, AUR, Debian/Ubuntu, Homebrew, and MacPorts installation paths.

### Related projects

- The tool depends on cplusplus.com and cppreference.com as content backends and is conceptually related to the system man command.
