💖 ffset(1) 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because this is the little manual page for ffset — a General Commands Manual situation, and yes it is exactly as niche and exactly as iconic as it sounds 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

ffset — set force-feedback device parameters 🫶

no cap, that's the whole job. it sets the params. the force-feedback ones. on your device. slay.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

ffset <device> [-g <gain>] [-a <autocenter strength>]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. two little optional flags and a device, and you're done 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like, ffset sets the gain and the autocenter strength of a force-feedback device. that's literally it, that's the entire main character moment. it does not do anything else, it does not have a secret third thing, it just sets those two things and dips ✨

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• <device> — the device you wanna configure. like, the actual hardware, bestie. point at it and tell it what's up 🎮
• -g <gain> — the gain. it goes from 0 to 100. yes, that's the range, 0-100, no funny business 🌈
• -a <autocenter strength> — the autocenter strength. also 0 to 100. same energy, different knob 🎀

⭐ AUTHOR ⭐

ffset was written by Johann Deneux. periodt, credit where credit is due 👑

this manual page was written by Stephen Kitt <steve@sk2.org>, for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by others). and here's the lil detail that lives rent free in my head: it was last modified for ffmvforce dated May 30, 2001. not me getting emotional over a timestamp 😭

so yeah. that's ffset. a tiny page, a huge amount of chaotic good energy, and every single fact preserved exactly as it was. no notes. 💅

and that's the wrap, bestie — this whole thing is from the ffset(1) page, dated March 8, 2009, and if you see the name ffset floating around in your terminal, that's just the manual page saying hi to itself 💖✨ bye!! 🦋
