💖 ERIC6_SNAP 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the eric6_snap page — it's a General Commands Manual entry and honestly it's a short one, so we're gonna get through it together in like two minutes, no cap 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

eric6_snap — a simple lil utility that does snapshots of the screen. that's it. that's the whole job. it's giving screenshot goblin energy and we love her for it 📸✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

eric6_snap [options]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so this manual page documents eric6_snap briefly — like, the sparknotes version, not the whole novel 💅

and here's the tea: this manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. so like… we made one. you're welcome 😭

and what does eric6_snap actually do? it makes snapshots of the screen. iconic. periodt. 🔥

💅 OPTIONS 💅

these programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (-). a summary of options is included below — for a complete description, see the Info files (iykyk 👑).

  • --config=configDir — use the given directory as the one containing the config files. like, "hey bestie, my configs live here now" 🎀
  • -h or --help — show this help and exit. the classic "help me help you" move 🙈
  • --version — show program version number and exit. so you can be like "what version are you, bestie?" and then she leaves 🌸

🎀 AUTHOR 🎀

this manual page was written by Torsten Marek <shlomme@gmx.net>, for the Debian project (but may be used by others). shoutout to Torsten, fr fr 🫶✨

🧚 quick vibe check: the original program has no manual page, this one was written for Debian, and it's a brief doc — so don't come for me if you wanted a 40-page deep dive, okay? 😭

and that's the whole page bestie!! ERIC6_SNAP(1) from March 23, 2014, that's the date on the original footer and we're keeping it forever 🎀 go take some screenshots, you've earned it 💅👑🌸
