Remind me again, please. What's stopping us from dropping man-pages and their horrible ROFF format?

We could at least convert them to Markdown and provide a convenient pager that's not stuck in the 70s.

@fribbledom I too would like tooling that feels like it was from the this decade. utils has done a good job colorizing output & other human / quality of life improvements with things like etc... For example $exa has a option for filetype icons to precede file names so you can quickly identify directories, images, text etc... Simple things that have incredible benefit.
