✨ GNOME-CALCULATOR ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the manual page for gnome-calculator, the calculator that lives in section 1 of your friendly neighbourhood general commands manual. yes, it's a whole manual page. for a calculator. and honestly? iconic behaviour. 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

gnome-calculator — a desktop calculator 🧮✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

gnome-calculator [ OPTION ] ...

so like, you run it, you optionally throw some flags at it, and that's the whole vibe. the ... means you can keep piling options on there. go off. 👑

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

gnome-calculator is the official calculator of the GNOME desktop environment. that's not me being dramatic, that's literally its job title. it's THE calculator. the main character of calculators. no cap. 🫶

🦋 OPTIONS 🦋

  • -e, --equation — starts gnome-calculator and shows you the equation that comes right after this option. like, you hand it an equation and it puts it on screen. cute, right? ✨
  • -s, --solve — actually solves the equation you give it right after this option. not just showing it, bestie — solving it. math girlies rise. 🔥
  • -v, --version — spits out the version info and then dips. exit. gone. bye. 👋
  • -h, -?, --help — prints out all the command line options for you. your little cheat sheet. three whole ways to ask for it, because we're generous. 💜

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

gcalccmd — go look at that one too, iykyk 💫

lowkey a tiny page, highkey does exactly what it says on the tin. no mysterious undefined behaviour here, just a calculator doing calculator things. 😌

and that's the whole thing, bestie! this gem dropped on 7 August 2013 📅 and it's the GNOME-CALCULATOR(1) page from the General Commands Manual — go forth and calculate, you absolute math icon 👑💖🧮
