For even more brevity, there's tldr [1], which is short-n-sweet "how do I do the most common things with this tool."
You'll need a client for it (tldr itself is just the database). I recommend tealdeer [2].
Example:
$ tldr tar
Archiving utility.
Often combined with a compression method, such as gzip or bzip2.
More information: <https://www.gnu.org/software/tar>.
[c]reate an archive and write it to a [f]ile:
tar cf target.tar file1 file2 file3
[c]reate a g[z]ipped archive and write it to a [f]ile:
tar czf target.tar.gz file1 file2 file3
Often combined with a compression method, such as gzip or bzip2.
[...]
[c]reate a g[z]ipped archive and write it to a [f]ile:
tar czf target.tar.gz file1 file2 file3
That helpful bracketing notation is going to break down as soon as you actually want to deal with bzip2.
There's no real problem, but I never like it when I'm given an example that seems to be going out of its way to suggest something untrue.
