💖 BDUMP(1) — the biniou glow-up manual 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the bdump page from the User Manuals section. this is your girl's guide to peeking at biniou data and actually understanding what it's saying. let's go ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

bdump — visualization of biniou data 🦋

like. it makes your biniou data visible. that's the whole vibe.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

bdump [Options...] [file]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the tea, bestie: bdump prints biniou data files in human readable form. iconic behavior, honestly.

for the conversion of hash tags into meaningful names, bdump maintains a dictionary of words — see option -h for that whole situation. new words can be added to this dictionary with -d and -w, slay. and the dictionary is saved between invocation, see option -x and -h. it literally remembers. main character energy fr fr 💅

if the file argument is omitted, bdump reads data from standard input. no file? no problem, she's flexible 💜

👑 OPTIONS 👑

  • -d file — load file containing words to add to the dictionary, one per line 📝
  • -h file — set dictionary file for unhashing. default is $HOME/.bdump-dict on Unix and $HOMEPATH_bdump-dict on Windows 🪟
  • -w word1,word2,... — add words to the dictionary 🍓
  • -x — neither load nor update the dictionary file (see option -h) 🙈
  • -help | --help — print options and exit ✨
okay so quick vibe check on -x: she's the "don't touch my dictionary" flag. neither loads nor updates it. periodt.
