💅 caja-actions-print — the manual, but make it cute

okay bestie, so this page is caja-actions-print(1) from the caja-actions manual, and I'm about to explain it to you like we're texting at 2am. grab a snack. 🍓

✨ NAME ✨

caja-actions-print — print a menu or an action to stdout

like. that's it. that's the whole job. it prints stuff. to stdout. 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

caja-actions-print [OPTION]

one command, some optional flags, no drama.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so caja-actions-print prints a caja-actions menu or action to stdout. that's the whole vibe. it's literally built to be used on the command-line, for scripting caja actions — so if you're the kind of person who automates everything (and you are, bestie, i see you), this is your girl. ✨

it's giving "i'm a little tool and i know my purpose." main character energy, honestly.

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

Help options 💖

these are the "wait what does this do" options. we love a support system.

  • -?, -h, --help — show help options. classic. iconic. never not useful. 🫶
  • --help-all — show all help options. the deluxe tour, no skips.
  • --help-misc — show miscellaneous options. just the little odds and ends, for when you want the misc menu specifically.

Miscellaneous options 🌈

  • -v, --version — output the version number. yes bestie, know your version, it's important. 👑

Application options ⭐

the real ones. the actual functioning of the program:

  • -i, --id=STRING — the internal identifier of the action to be launched. it wants the internal id, so don't go making one up. STRING is a placeholder — put your actual id there. 💅
  • -f, --format=<STRING> — an export format. the default is [Desktop1], so if you don't say anything, Desktop1 is what you get. also, STRING here is a placeholder, not a literal. 🦋
