okay so bestie, welcome to the fltk-options(1) page β€” that's the General Commands Manual, and yes we're reading a manpage together, it's giving study date energy πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

fltk-options β€” the little app that lets you get and modify FLTK runtime options. periodt.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

fltk-options [ -Soption[=value] ] [ -Uoption[=value] ] [ -L ] [ -LS ] [
-LU ] [ -f ] [ -v ] [ --verbose ] [ -h[option] ] [ --help [option] ]

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so fltk-options is this tool that lets you peek at and change the settings for the user interface in apps built with FLTK. literally its whole job. πŸ’…

these settings get applied when the program is launched. you can set them at the system level or per individual user β€” and no cap, user settings take precedence over system settings. the user always wins, main character energy fr fr πŸ‘‘

the following command line arguments are supported:

  • -Soption[=value] β€” change or print a system wide option.
  • -Uoption[=value] β€” change or print a user option. values can be "0" or "OFF" to clear it, or "1" or "ON" to set it. the value "-1" or "DEFAULT" sets the option back to its default value. and if you don't give a value at all, the current setting gets returned as "-1", "0", or "1". so cute, so informative 🫢
  • -L β€” list the value of all options.
  • -LS β€” list the value of all system options.
  • -LU β€” list the value of all user options.
  • -f β€” suppress error messages concerning file access permissions. like, shhh, we don't need that drama πŸ™ˆ
  • -v, --verbose β€” print additional information in command line mode.
  • -h[option], --help [option] β€” prints a help page. if an option is given, it prints detailed information for that option. very "let me google that for you" of it ✨

the following FLTK options are supported:

  • OPTION_VISIBLE_FOCUS β€” draw a dotted rectangle in the widget that has keyboard focus.
  • OPTION_ARROW_FOCUS β€” arrow keys will move focus beyond the text input field.
  • OPTION_SHOW_TOOLTIPS β€” show or hide tooltips.
  • OPTION_DND_TEXT β€” the user can drag text from FLTK into other apps.
  • OPTION_FNFC_USES_GTK β€” use the GTK file chooser instead of FLTK if it's available.
  • OPTION_PRINTER_USES_GTK β€” use the GTK printer dialog instead of FLTK if it's available.
  • OPTION_SHOW_SCALING β€” show the zoom factor in a transient popup window.

and here's the fun part β€” calling fltk-options with no options at all launches fltk-options interactive mode. no flags, just vibes 🌈
