The -p option does not have the alias function

tldr -p linux awk output :

tldr awk output :

$ tldr awk                                                                                                         1 ✘ 

  awk

  一种用于文件处理的通用编程语言。
  更多信息：https://github.com/onetrueawk/awk.

  - 以空格为分隔符，打印文件每行第五列（也称作字段）：
    awk '{print $5}' 文件名

  - 以空格为分隔符，打印文件包含“foo” 的所有行的第二列：
    awk '/foo/ {print $2}' 文件名

  - 以逗号而不是空格作为分隔符，打印文件每行的最后一列：
    awk -F ',' '{print $NF}' 文件名

  - 计算文件的第一列数值之和并打印：
    awk '{s+=$1} END {print s}' 文件名

  - 从第一行开始，每三行打印一行：
    awk 'NR%3==1' 文件名

  - 根据条件不同，打印不同内容：
    awk '{if ($1 == "foo") print "Exact match foo"; else if ($1 ~ "bar") print "Partial match bar"; else print "Baz"}' 文件名

  - 打印第 10 列等于指定值的所有行：
    awk '($10 == 指定值)'

  - 打印第 10 列介于最小值和最大值之间的所有行：
    awk '($10 >= 最小值 && $10 <= 最大值)'

The awk command is located in common/awk.md and should work on any platform (linux, macos, etc.), at least no matter what the -p option is, you should get the documented results.

The reason why I have this problem is that I execute the command tldr gawk and the output is

$ tldr gawk                                                                                                          ✔ 

  gawk

  这是 `-p linux awk` 命令的一个别名。

  - 原命令的文档在：
    tldr -p linux awk

Found 2 pages with the same name under the platforms: osx, osx.

Leads me to execute tldr -p linux awk,After I executed it, the following prompts

$ tldr -p linux awk                                                                                                  ✔

I think this is ill-designed!

Which tldr client are you using (aka how did you install tldr?). Sounds like a bug in the client. I interpret the client specification (https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr/blob/main/CLIENT-SPECIFICATION.md#page-resolution) as requiring that a page should be displayed when it exists for any platform, even when the desired platform is specified through the -p parameter.

OS: Manjaro 24.2.1 Yonada, and install tldr using the command sudo pacman -S tldr, I understand your description, but I think this may be a more usable optimization point.

It is a bug in the client, but the gawk page is wrong too. There is no page for awk in the linux directory.
