A fully-functional [bash](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bash_%28Unix_shell%29) client for [tldr](https://github.com/rprieto/tldr/). This version aims to be the easiest and smallest to set up on a new account, without sacrificing any features.

# Setup
mkdir -p ~/bin
curl -o ~/bin/tldr https://raw.githubusercontent.com/raylee/tldr/master/tldr
chmod +x ~/bin/tldr
# Prerequisites
`curl` needs to be available somewhere in your `$PATH`. The script is otherwise self-contained.
# Usage
tldr [options] <command>
[options]
-l, --list: show all available pages
-u, --update: update, force retrieving latest copies of index and <command>
-p, --platform: show page from specific platform rather than autodetecting
-h, -?: this help overview
<command>
Show examples for this command
The client caches a copy of all pages and the index locally under
~/.config/tldr. By default, the cached copies will expire in 14 days.
# Contributing
This is the result of a Sunday afternoon project. It's been lightly tested under Mac OS X 10.9 and Ubuntu Linux 15.10. I've tried to make the project as portable as possible, but if there's something I missed I'd love your help.
