| .SH "OUTPUT FORMATS" |
| |
| The rustdoc tool can generate output in an HTML format. |
| |
| If using an HTML format, then the specified output destination will be the root |
| directory of an HTML structure for all the documentation. |
| Pages will be placed into this directory, and source files will also |
| possibly be rendered into it as well. |
| |
| .SH "EXAMPLES" |
| |
| To generate documentation for the source in the current directory: |
| $ rustdoc hello.rs |
| |
| List all available passes that rustdoc has, along with default passes: |
| $ rustdoc \-\-passes list |
| |
| The generated HTML can be viewed with any standard web browser. |
