Convert DOC (Word) to 1 (Man Page)

The DOC file extension, standing for "Microsoft Word Document", is a legacy format used by Microsoft Word. Introduced in the early 1980s with Microsoft Word for MS-DOS, it became the standard format for saving documents until the adoption of the DOCX format with Microsoft Word 2007. DOC files encapsulate text, formatting, images, and other document elements, and were pivotal in advancing word processing capabilities, offering extensive features for creating professional and complex documents in both personal and professional contexts. Despite the shift to DOCX, DOC files remain significant for their compatibility with older software versions and extensive archival of legacy documents.

The 1 file extension refers to Unix Section 1 Manual Pages, which are plain text files containing documentation for user commands in Unix systems. Accessed via the "man" utility, these files provide detailed information on command usage, options, and examples. Historically, they have been an essential part of Unix documentation, helping users understand and effectively utilize commands. The 1 designation indicates that the manual page pertains to general commands.
