Wand-Config(1)

📦 version 6.9.13.58, in epel 9

✨ Wand-Config(1) — the General Commands Manual, but make it cute ✨

okay so real talk: this is Wand-config, and it lives in the General Commands Manual section of your system. She's a tiny little helper script with main character energy and exactly one job. Let's get into it 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

Wand-config — she tells you stuff about the Magick Wand that's installed on your machine 🪄

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

Wand-config [--cflags] [--cppflags] [--exec-prefix] [--ldflags] [--libs]
[--prefix] [--version]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So Wand-config prints the compiler and linker flags you need to actually compile and link programs that use the Wand Application Programmer Interface. That's it. That's the whole vibe. She's giving helpful-little-oracle, no cap 🫶

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

Wanna know what version of Wand you've got installed? Obsessed, easy:

  Wand-config --version

Wanna compile a program that calls the Wand Application Programmer Interface? Bestie, just let her hand you the flags:

cc `Wand-config --cflags --cppflags --ldflags --libs` program.c

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • --cflags — prints the compiler flags that were used to compile libWand. the receipts, basically 💅
  • --cppflags — prints the preprocessor flags you need so the compiler can find the Wand C include files, plus the defines that make sure the Wand data structures in your program match the installed libraries. lowkey the most important one for not having a bad time 😭
  • --exec-prefix — prints the directory under which target specific binaries and executables are installed. where the binaries live, iykyk 🏠
  • --ldflags — prints the linker flags that are needed to link with the Wand library 🔗
  • --libs — prints the linker flags that are needed to link a program with libWand 🍓
  • --version — prints the version of the Wand distribution to standard output. she'll tell you fr fr ⭐
