ABSTRACT:
A method for generating documentation content for computer operating system commands with command specifications in command definition files is disclosed. The method includes examining a command definition file for a syntactic structure of a corresponding command. The command definition file has a link point, a keyword, and an argument. A documentation requirement and documentation options are extracted from the syntactic structure. The documentation requirement and the documentation options are combined into a documentation tag construct. The method automatically generates a template for a documentation content file, which includes a natural language explanation for the keyword and argument.
