@ekg use https://github.com/seqan/seqan3/tree/master/include/seqan3/argument_parser which will generate the unix manual pages + CTD descriptions for free? :-)
If we don't use something like this, then we are going to have to fight to keep things in sync. Maybe it is needed. It's a lot of typing but really useful.

Let's make a man page for vg, and one for each subcommand!
To do this, we need a template man page. I will populate that with a stock transformation of the command's help text. I'm going to assign these based on who has been hacking the most on the command line interface.
@mr-c, do you have any suggestions for guidelines to follow when making these documents?
