## Historique du projet et usages

eg, short for Expert Guide, is a console Norton Guide reader for GNU/Linux and macOS.

### Historique du projet

The upstream README describes Expert Guide as a Norton Guide reader developed on and for Linux, with possible portability to DOS via DJGPP and other Unix-like systems with the S-Lang library. The GitHub repository was created in 2015, but the Changes file records much earlier 0.00 through 0.05-era development history.

### Historique d'adoption

The package is niche because Norton Guide files are a legacy documentation format. Its Homebrew formula keeps a small terminal reader available for users who still have old guides or want a Unix-like way to inspect them.

### Modes d'utilisation

Users build with make, install with make install, and read the included man page for basic usage. The README notes that anyone familiar with Norton Guide or Expert Help should understand the interface quickly.

The Changes file documents features typical of an interactive terminal reader: remembered last guide location, menus, search, regular expression search, save-to-file, guide directory scanning, config reading from ~/.egrc, suspend/resume, and repeated search.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

This eg is package-nerd-significant mostly as preservation tooling. It keeps a DOS-era documentation reader pattern available in Unix package managers and also creates the naming collision that makes srsudar/eg ship in Homebrew as eg-examples.

### Chronologie

- Pre-2015: Changes file records 0.00 through 0.05 development.
- 2015: Public GitHub repository created.
- 2015: README footnote records macOS support as of December 2015.
- 2017: Repository last pushed according to GitHub metadata.

### Related projects

- Related projects include Norton Guide, Expert Help, DJGPP, S-Lang, and the unrelated srsudar/eg command-example browser.
