πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
boomaga [OPTIONS] [file]
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
Boomaga β and yes that's short for BOOklet MAnager, the acronym ate and left no crumbs π β is a virtual printer. What does she do? She lets you view a document before printing it out using the physical printer, or she makes you print booklets. both. she contains multitudes. β¨
The program is genuinely so simple to work with, no cap. Here's the whole flow: run any program, click "print", and select "Boomaga". Then you wait a few seconds (because CUPS takes some time to respond, that's just how it is, not me being dramatic π) and the Boomaga window opens up for you. π
And here's the cute part: if you print out one more document, it gets added to the previous one β and you can print them all out as one. stacking documents like a true main character. π₯
