- The name of "GenerateManualPlugin" was changed to "Generate Manual" to
improve the plugin's display name in Xcode. This however results in
the `.pluginWorkDirectory` provided by SPM to include a space (' ') in
the path. The space in the output path by itself is not a deal
breaker, but unfortunately `man` (at least on macOS) does not properly
handle path arguments with spaces. Example:
```shell
➜ swift package generate-manual
...
Generating manual for roll...
Generated manual in '.build/plugins/Generate Manual/outputs/roll'
...
➜ man '.build/plugins/Generate Manual/outputs/roll/roll.1'
/usr/bin/man: line 413: cd: .build/plugins/Generate: No such file or \
directory
```
IMO, easily previewing the generating manual takes precedence over the
UI in Xcode; as a result, this commit partially reverts the plugin's
name to "GenerateManual" to hopefully provide a good middle ground of
an output path without a space and a display name in Xcode that is a
little easier on the eyes than "GenerateManualPlugin" was.
- IDEA: additional discussion for commands and arguments which is exported to dump-help and can be consumed by supplemental content generators to contains much more detailed information than you may want to include in a help screen. Maybe a better idea would be to have --help-detailed flag that would include this information in the help output. Suggestions are welcome.
