✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

cyclist [FILE]

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

okay so, this manual page is gonna give you the brief rundown of the cyclist command, no cap. it's giving "short but useful," and honestly? obsessed. 🫢

cyclist is a program that converts the Cycling '74 Max/MSP .mxb file format into the maxv2 .pat or .mxt file format. πŸŽ€

the way it works is: it reads the file name as the first argument, and then it dumps the resulting text straight to stdout. literally that simple. no extra steps, no drama, just vibes. ⭐

heads up bestie: it reads the file name as the first argument and sends all that converted text to stdout, so if you were expecting it to write a file for you... it's not doing that, it's printing. periodt. πŸ’…
