CRIT(1)

✨ CRIT(1) — the CRiu Image Tool, bestie edition ✨

okay so picture this: it's giving CRIU Manual energy, the command is crit, and it's literally about to become your new favorite thing. 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

crit decode [-h] [-i IN] [-o OUT] [--pretty]

crit encode [-h] [-i IN] [-o OUT]

crit info [-h] in

crit x [-h] dir {ps,fds,mems}

crit show [-h] in

no cap, that's the whole vibe up top — five little subcommands, each one a different flavor of iconic. 🎀

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

So crit is a feature-rich replacement for the existing criu show. that's it, that's the whole description, and honestly? she ate. 🔥 it's the glow-up, the main character moment, the "not me replacing the old one but doing it gorgeously" of it all.

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

🍓 Positional Arguments 🍓

these are the ones you just… hand over. no flag name needed, she knows what she's doing.

• decode — converts a criu image from binary type to JSON. 🧚 binary in, JSON out, slay.
• encode — converts a criu image from JSON type back to binary. 💖 the reverse glow-up, we love a round trip.
• info — shows info about an image. 👑 just a lil peek under the hood.
• x — explore an image directory. 🦋 the little explorer of the group chat, fr fr.
• show — converts a criu image from binary to human-readable JSON. 🌈 this is the one doing the whole "readable at last" moment.

🌸 Optional Arguments 🌸

• -h, --help — prints some help and exits. 🫶 the universal "bestie I'm lost" button. no judgment, we've all been there.
