devhelp β€” an API documentation browser, bestie πŸ’– (it's in section 1 of the manual, iykyk)


🌸 SYNTAX 🌸

devhelp [OPTIONS]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

Devhelp is an API documentation browser for GNOME. That's it, that's the whole vibe β€” it's the place you go when you need to know what a function does and you're not about to read raw source like some kind of feral gremlin. πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -s, --search=*KEYWORD* β€” searches for a keyword, like a function or a symbol. Your little lookup slay πŸ”βœ¨
  • -a, --search-assistant=*KEYWORD* β€” searches and shows any hit in the assistant window, so the results pop up right there in the side panel 🫢

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

To run this program the standard way, just type:

devhelp

And if you would like to search for a function, type:

devhelp -s search-string

Look at you, searching like a main character. Obsessed. πŸ‘‘
