devhelp β an API documentation browser, bestie π (it's in section 1 of the manual, iykyk)
πΈ SYNTAX πΈ
devhelp [OPTIONS]
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
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. π
π OPTIONS π
-s,--search=*KEYWORD*β searches for a keyword, like a function or a symbol. Your little lookup slay πβ¨-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 π«Ά
π EXAMPLES π
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. π
