I recently installed youtube-dl.
I first used apt-get
to install it. However, the version was outdated and there were problems. I was able to look through the documentation using man youtube-dl
.
In their documentation I found out that they recommend following their manual installation guide. So I followed their instructions and reinstalled using wget
and the program worked fine. However, I can no longer access their documentation using man youtube-dl
.
Instead of the manual, I get:
No manual entry for youtube-dl
See 'man 7 undocumented' for help when manual pages are not available.
Is there a way for me to manually add in the documentation from their github? So this is also sort of a general question as well for any other command that doesn't have a manual attached after installation.
