I am using WSL on Windows 11. I am using the prebuilt binary package https://github.com/cppalliance/mrdocs/releases/download/v0.0.2/MrDocs-0.0.2-Linux.tar.gz

When I run command:

./mrdocs /mnt/c/Users/pc/source/repos/markable/documentation/mrdocs.yml

I get an error message:

Generating reference failed: The config mrdocs.yml path does not exist (src/tool/ToolArgs.cpp:224)
    Reported at src/tool/ToolMain.cpp(83)

However, when I do cat on the same absolute path, the mrdocs.yml file is clearly there. Also, when I run mrdocs directly from the folder where mrdocs.yml seats, the file is detected correctly. It looks like mrdocs has problems parsing paths in WSL.

Problem 2

The error message is unclear. It is not gramatically correct.
I do not know whether path that is reported nonexistent is the path to the YAML file, or some path mentioned in the YAML file.
Also, I do not need to know the source locations that initiated the error message.
