π BMFCONV(1) β the bmfconv glow-up π
okay bestie, gather round, because this is the manual page for bmfconv, and it's literally a database converter for bmf. no cap. π¦
β¨ NAME β¨
bmfconv β database converter for bmf
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
bmfconv [-f fmt] [-d db] [-e] [-i] [-v] [-h]
π DESCRIPTION π
so here's the vibe: bmfconv converts bmf token databases between the supported formats. that's it, that's the job. π
it can import flat text files into databases, and it can export databases back out into flat text files. both directions, she's versatile like that.
β οΈ PLEASE NOTE, and I need you to actually read this part: the text files used in import and export operations are read and written in the current directory. not somewhere cute and safe, not in some config folder β the current directory. so like, know where you are when you run this. periodt. π
π OPTIONS π
-f fmtβ specify the database format. the supported formats are"db"for libdb and"mysql"for MySQL. pick your fighter. β¨-d dbβ specify the database name. π«Ά-eβ export the database to text files. π€-iβ import the database from text files. π₯-vβ display version information. π-hβ display usage information. the classic help flag, we love her. π
β RETURN VALUES β
0 if the conversion succeeds, nonzero if the conversion fails. simple. iconic. binary queen. π₯
π§ FILES π§
goodlist.txtβ text file for import or export of good tokens. β¨spamlist.txtβ text file for import or export of spam tokens. π
π BUGS π
Should be more robust.
