✨ NAME ✨

gbh3 — the GAMBAS Help Extractor, aka the little tool that pulls your docs out of source code and makes them cute 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

gbh3 [options] [<sources>]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. options go here, your sources go there. 🎀

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so first, context, because you need the context.

Gambas is a free development environment based on a Basic interpreter with object extensions — it's giving a mix of Java(tm) and Visual Basic(tm), fr fr. With Gambas you can:

• quickly design your program GUI with Qt or GTK+ 🎨
• access database systems like MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQlite or ODBC databases 🗄️
• pilot applications with DBus 🚀
• translate your program into many languages 🌍
• create GStreamer, OpenGL or SDL applications 💫
• and so on... literally the list keeps going, she does it all 👑

and gbh3? she's the one who extracts Gambas documentation from C/C++ source files and creates .help files for a component from them. no cap. that's the whole job and she ate. 🔥

💅 OPTIONS 💅

here's the full menu, bestie. every single one, no skips:

• -r, --root <root> — hands over the Gambas installation directory. like, "here's where everything lives" 🏠
• -c, --component <component> — generates the help directly into a component *.help file. straight to the source, no middleman 💾
• -v, --verbose — runs in verbose mode. she will tell you everything she's doing. not me being chatty, it's literally the mode 🗣️
• -V, --version — displays the version. quick vibe check on what you're running ⭐
• -L, --license — displays the license. the legal tea ☕
• -h, --help — displays help and exits. the classic escape hatch, iconic 🙈
