💅 avicat — the manual, bestie edition ✨

okay so. you found avicat, the manual page avicat(1). buckle up, it's a short ride but it's a ride.

🌸 NAME 🌸

avicat — a cat tool for joining files 🐱

like, cat, but make it join-y. that's the whole pitch. no notes.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

avicat [options] [ files | URLs ]

you hand it some files, or you hand it some URLs, or honestly you hand it both, it's giving very flexible. and [options] up front if you're feeling fancy. 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the thing. the entire description of this program is:

avicat DO NOT USE! 💀

that's it. that's the description. no cap. the manpage author looked at their own software, typed three words, and went to bed. iconic behaviour, honestly. 🙈

bestie, please hear me: that's not a joke, that's not a bit, that's a warning. the documentation literally tells you not to use it. so like… don't? 🫶

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• -h, --help — shows you the help message. that's it, that's the one option. a single crumb of functionality. it's serving minimalist. ⭐

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

• aviplay(1) — the sibling program, go bother that one instead 💖

👑 THE VIBE CHECK 👑

• one (1) option
• one (1) description, and it's a threat
• zero (0) reasons to run this

genuinely obsessed with the confidence of shipping a manpage whose entire DESCRIPTION section is a "do not". main character energy in the worst possible way. periodt. 🎀
