Allows conversion of a whole man category to a Qt Help Project file that can then be compiled to a .qch help file. For example, to create project containing man2, run
./man2qhelp.py 2
qhelpgenerator man.qhp
to first create man.qhp
and then to convert it to man.qch
. Then open Qt Creator settings about Help and add the
file to registered documentation. Now the man2 category pages can be accessed from Qt Creator help.
- python 3.6 (at least),
- groff 1.22 (but may work on other versions too),
- netpbm 10.70 (or such, required by groffhtml driver),
- psutils 1.17 (or such, required by groffhtml driver),
- qthelp 5.9 (or such).
- groffhtml converts tables to images instead of using
<table>
element. - Cross-references are not checked and the resulting link may be broken.
- Converting only single page or explicit pages is not supported or tested.
- Output file must be located in cache directory. This is requirement by Qt Help.
