The 8 file extension refers to Unix Section 8 Manual Pages, which document system administration commands, daemons, and hardware-related commands. These files are part of the Unix operating system's manual pages and are intended to be viewed using the "man" utility. Each 8 file is named after the command it describes, such as "shutdown.8" for the shutdown command. Historically, Unix manual pages have been a fundamental part of Unix documentation since the early 1970s, providing essential information for system administrators and users.
DocBook XML, a subset of XML (Extensible Markup Language), serves as a markup language tailored for technical documentation. Developed in the early 90s, it was designed to standardize documentation across various software systems. Its uses include creating structured documents like books, articles, and manuals, ensuring consistency and ease of content transformation across different formats such as HTML, PDF, and EPUB. This standardization facilitates collaboration among developers and writers, enhances content reuse, and simplifies documentation maintenance.
