🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

estconfig is useful for integration of an application or a system using Hyper Estraier. It outputs setting and configurations of Hyper Estraier.

translation: if you're building something that needs to find Hyper Estraier on this machine — the headers, the libs, the binaries, all of it — you don't guess, you ask her. she already knows. 💖

• estconfig --version — to output version information. the "who even are you" check ✨
• estconfig --prefix — to output the prefix of the destination of installation. the home base of the whole install 🏠
• estconfig --execprefix — to output the prefix of the files depending on the platform. platform-specific stuff lives here 🫶
• estconfig --headdir — to output the prefix of the headers. where the .h files are hiding 🙈
• estconfig --libdir — to output the prefix of the libraries. the libs. the moment. 📚
• estconfig --bindir — to output the prefix of the commands. where the actual runnable commands chill 🔥
• estconfig --libexecdir — to output the prefix of the CGI script. yes, CGI, we love a vintage moment 👑
• estconfig --datadir — to output the prefix of the configuration files. config files, the backbone fr fr ⭐
• estconfig --cflags — to output the compiler options to be specified when building. hand these straight to your compiler, no notes 💅
• estconfig --ldflags — to output the linker options to be specified when building. linker fuel, right here 🌈
• estconfig --libs — to output the libraries to be specified when building. the library list, served fresh 🍓
• estconfig --mtlibs — to output the libraries for applications with multi thread. for the multithreaded girlies specifically 🧚

and the best part?? estconfig always returns 0 as the exit status. always. she does not do drama. she does not fail. she's built different. 💜
