💖 GEG(1) 💖

okay so bestie, pull up a chair, we're talking about geg — the GTK+ Equation Grapher, aka your new graphing bestie ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

geg — a GTK+ Equation Grapher yes she graphs, yes she's iconic 👑

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

geg [options]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🎀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So here's the tea: geg is a lil tool that draws 2-dimensional mathematical functions inside a nice user interface. no cap, it's genuinely cute AND functional, we love a multi-hyphenate 💅

And like… you can use the mouse to zoom into the graph, and you can solve function or axis intersections too. the way that just works?? obsessed 🌸

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

lowkey the plot twist: besides the whole graphical user interface moment, the command line can also be used as a basic calculator or an equation solver (peep the inline help for the details, iykyk). Here's what you can pass in: 🫶

• --help, --version — show the version of the program. iconic, she tells you who she is 💖
• --display display — specify the X display to open, for example noether.math:0. See X(1) for further info. fr fr, go read X(1) if you need the lore 📖
