🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

gct-tool [global options] <command> [command options]

look at her. she's beautiful. global options go first, then your command, then whatever options that command wants 💖

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so the gct-tool command can be used for manipulation of Gwenhywfar CryptTokens. and no cap, AqBanking uses such Gwenhywfar CryptTokens to handle the various authentication mechanisms (like chipcards or key files) in a unified fashion. so it's like... the group chat where every auth method finally shows up and gets along?? obsessed fr fr 🔥

  • -C PARAM, --cfgfile=PARAM — Specify the configuration file 💜
  • --forcepin — force pin entry even if the error counter is not zero
  • -h, --help — Show this help screen 🎀
