Auto-import files from bropages and tldr

It would be nice to have all the contents from tldr and bropages in manpages-tldr, with a way to update them from their repositories.

@cweiske Yeah, I just thought about that. pandoc does a great job converting Markdown files to manpages, but we need to add some hints (like # NAME and #EXAMPLES) to get better looking pages.

  • [x] script to import tldr pages
  • [ ] script to import bropages

So, I've made a script to import tldr pages :smile_cat: lots of new pages!

What about license compatibility? Are the manpages-tldr license and the tldr pages license compatible?

@cweiske yes, this project initially kinda based on tldr-pages and I took the same license (MIT).

I think tldr import is enough. Once tldr is done with their bropages support (https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr/issues/266), the current tldr script would cover everything automatically.

@cweiske oh, nice! Would waiting for this import then.
