Elsewhere[0] I mentioned a shell alias called `eg` that jumps to the 'Examples' section in traditional man-pages.
I made great use of it with the excellently structured yet rather verbose git man-pages.
Anyways, here's the alias:
alias eg='man --pager='\''less -p "^[A-Z]* ?EXAMPLES"'\'''
Try it out:
eg git pull
(With older shells you might have to say `eg git-pull`).
Now as concerns the fine project submitted here,
I'd suggest to try getting as much of those tldr's into
actual man-pages. This will at least make the long-term
survival of OP's labour more probable.
