💖 DESKFLOW-CORE 💖

okay hi bestie!! so this is the manual page for deskflow-core, a User Commands situation, and it's literally the keyboard-and-mouse-sharing utility you've been looking for. sit down, get comfy, we're doing this 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

deskflow-core — Keyboard and mouse sharing utility

no cap, that's the whole name. one job. one icon. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

deskflow-core coremode [options]

so you run the binary, you hand it a coremode, and then you sprinkle in whatever options your heart desires. that's the whole shape of it. 💖

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

deskflow-core: 1.27.0

Keyboard and mouse sharing utility

that's it, that's the description. it shares your keyboard and your mouse. across machines. main character energy tbh. ✨

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

okay here's the part you actually came for. every single flag, no skips, ngl:

  • -h, --help — Display Help on the command line. it tells you about itself, self-aware king 👑
  • -v, --version — Display version information. shows you what version you're on 💜
  • --new-instance — Skip the check for a running instance, always makes a new instance. so it doesn't peek around to see if you already have one running, it just sends it and starts a fresh one 🔥
  • -s, --settings <configFile> — override configuration file to use. point it at a different config file than the default, your rules bestie 🌈

🌟 Arguments: 🌟

these are the positional ones, the ones that come after the command name, so pay attention:

  • coremode — The mode to start in either: server or client

so like, pick a lane: are you the server or are you the client? that's it, that's the choice, and it's giving commitment. 🧚
