💖 fac — the F*EX admin era 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the fac(1) page from the General Commands Manual section, and yes it's the glow-up era of F*EX, let's get into it 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

fac — the F*EX administration tool. that's it, that's the icon. 👑

---

🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

fac [OPTIONS]

no arguments, just vibes and options. slay.

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like, F*EX (that's Frams' Fast File EXchange, keep up 🫶) is a whole service for sending big files — and when we say big we mean big (large, huge, giant, ...) — from a user A to a user B. the entire point. iconic behaviour honestly.

this manual page documents the fac command, but like, briefly. it's giving "we don't have time for a whole novel".

real talk though: this manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. so this is the only lore we have. cherish it. 🎀
