Convert DOT to 2 (Man Page)

The DOT file extension stands for Microsoft Word Document Template. It is utilized to create standardized document formats with predefined settings such as fonts, layouts, and styles, facilitating uniformity and efficiency. Introduced with older versions of Microsoft Word, DOT files enable users to generate consistent documents across different projects, minimizing the need for repetitive formatting tasks. This legacy format was vital in establishing automated document creation processes before the evolution to newer template formats like DOTX.

A 2 file extension refers to a Unix manual page (man page) that documents a specific system call. These files are part of the Section 2 of the Unix manual, which is dedicated to system calls. Each 2 file is named after the system call it describes, such as "link.2" for the "link" system call. These files are intended to be viewed using the "man" utility in Unix-based systems. Historically, they have been a fundamental part of Unix documentation, providing detailed information on how to use system calls, their return values, possible errors, and related manual pages.
