okay so bestie, welcome to ed2k_hash(1), a little User Commands situation that is genuinely about to change your whole ed2k-link game. grab a snack, we're doing this πŸ“


✨ NAME ✨

ed2k_hash β€” a tool for generating ed2k-links. that's it, that's the whole vibe. no cap.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

ed2k_hash [OPTIONS] <FILES or DIRECTORIES>

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so like, ed2k_hash is for the girlies (gender neutral) who want to know the ed2k-links of files they are not currently sharing, or who just want the ed2k-links for all the files chilling in certain directories, etc. it's giving "i need the links and i need them now" πŸ’…

the way this works is you can hash:

  • a single file
  • multiple files
  • a whole directory
  • or a whole directory tree

literally pick your fighter. main character energy, every time. πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -a β€” wrap an html link around the ed2k-link, like <a href="..."></a>. it's giving ✨webpage✨
  • -p β€” in that html link, print the basename with the path component. yes, with. important distinction, iykyk.
  • -h β€” show this helpscreen. hi, hello, help is here 🫢
  • -v β€” be verbose and show extra information. she's chatty and we love that for her πŸ’¬
  • -r β€” recursively descend into directories. go deeper, bestie πŸŒ€
  • -x β€” do not descend into directories. boundaries. we stan. βœ‹
  • -w β€” wait for a keystroke when finished. so you can actually read the output before the terminal snatches it away 😭
