2018-05-14Ensure better text editor automatic filetype detectionEli Schwartz1-101/+0
Since we no longer use vim-specific modelines, use the .asciidoc file extension which is, well, reserved for asciidoc formatted files. This should presumably work everywhere without needing editor-specific workarounds and configuration. Also add a shebang to makepkg.conf to indicate it contains bash content.

2018-05-14Remove all modelines from the projectEli Schwartz1-4/+0
Many of these are pointless (e.g. there is no need to explicitly turn on spellchecking and language dictionaries for the manpages by default). The only useful modelines are the ones enforcing the project coding standards for indentation style (and "maybe" filetype/syntax, but everything except the asciidoc manpages and makepkg.conf is already autodetected), and indent style can be applied more easily with .editorconfig Signed-off-by: Eli Schwartz <eschwartz@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>

2013-03-15Update documentation to use https links for sites that support itJason St. John1-2/+2
The Arch web site now redirects to https links for all subdomains, so it makes sense to use these links in the docs for pacman. Links were changed to use https for a couple other sites that support it as well, such as gnu.org and kernel.org.

2011-07-28Unify modelines in Asciidoc filesDan McGee1-3/+3
This gets us close to using the same modeline in all files we run through Asciidoc, as well as adding the spell and spelllang declarations, just as we had in NEWS already. The choice of 'en_us' is mainly for consistency and because the body of work already uses these spellings. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2009-04-11doc: move files around for consistencyDan McGee1-0/+98
Move some of our documentation files, even though they aren't manpages, to the doc/ directory. This allows the new 'html' make target to manage them. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
