    It's offtopic, but man pages should really adopt a new format (e.g. markdown) instead of roff(1).

    roff is a terrible way to write a document. Its format is ancient and not well documented. Its behavior is not consistent across different implementations. Worst of all, no proper i18n support.

    There's a tool like roff2html, but again it's pretty sketchy in terms of reliability and i18n support. I wrote my own converter when I was translating OpenBSD manpages [1], but I hope more people recognize this issue.

    Slightly related to this, I'm building a ruby gem that lets you create such a workflow:

    https://gitlab.com/sdwolfz/cache_box_rb

    I guess some slight tweaks for task persitance and a CLI wrapper for it could let you achieve this (although I don't leverage Ractors so no true parallelism yet).

    Anyway, it still does not have an "official" release, nor a stable API, although the code works well and it's fully tested, as far a I can tell. I might consider providing such wrapper myself in the future as I can definitely see it's utility, but time is short nowadays.

What are some alternatives?
