Hey Sujeevan, The desktop team indeed opened this bug, and I'm sure the snappy team will respond to it quickly. For now, you can't really workaround that (well, telling people to man /snaps/snap_name/current/… isn't an option ;)) However, thinking about this, you may be able to add a "man" command in between (so that autocompletion show it) in your snapcraft.yaml, which is executing "man /snaps/snap_name/current/…" as a workaround. That way you will have (if your snap_name matches your command name): $ taskwarrior $ taskwarrior.man Does this fit the bill until we get proper manpage support in snapd?
