💖 EBLOOK 💖

okay bestie, so like — eblook is literally just here to let you look in an electronic dictionary. that's the whole vibe. no cap. 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

eblook [option...] [book-directory [appendix-directory]]

so you run it, you can sprinkle in some options if you want, and then you may hand it a book-directory and then, if you're feeling extra, an appendix-directory after that. iconic. 💅

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -e, --encoding=NAME — tells it which encoding to use for input/output. you're specifying the encoding with NAME. that's it, that's the whole job. ✨
  • -q, --no-init-file — makes it ignore the user init file. not me ghosting my own config 🙈
  • -h, --help — shows this message. the "help me bestie" button. 💜
  • -v, --version — shows the version number. cute little number reveal 🎀
