.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
If mode is not \(aqrdoc\(aq, then this command generates a restructured\-text
document describing all installed Puppet types or all allowable
arguments to puppet executables. It is largely meant for internal use
and is used to generate the reference document available on the
Reductive Labs web site.
.sp
In \(aqrdoc\(aq mode, this command generates an html RDoc hierarchy describing
the manifests that are in \(aqmanifestdir\(aq and \(aqmodulepath\(aq configuration
directives. The generated documentation directory is doc by default but
can be changed with the \(aqoutputdir\(aq option.
.sp
If the command is started with \(aqmanifest\-file\(aq command\-line arguments,
puppet doc generate a single manifest documentation that is output on
stdout.
