gnunet-messenger is a command line tool that connects you to rooms using the MESSENGER service so you can chat. that's it, that's the plot. main character energy in a terminal, fr fr. 🔥

👑 OPTIONS 👑

one bullet per flag, no skipping, because we do not ghost options in this house:

• -c FILENAME, --config=FILENAME — use the specified configuration file FILENAME. your config, your rules. 🍓
• -d PEERIDENTITY, --did=PEERIDENTITY — peer identity to entry into the room.
• -e IDENTITY, --ego=IDENTITY — identity to use for messaging.
• -h, --help — print short help on options. your emergency "what was that flag again" button. 🙈
• -L LOGLEVEL, --loglevel=LOGLEVEL — use LOGLEVEL for logging. valid values are DEBUG, INFO, WARNING and ERROR. pick your chaos level bestie. 💀
• -l LOGFILE, --logfile=LOGFILE — configure logging to write logs to LOGFILE. receipts, but make them files. 🧚
• -p, --private — flag to enable private mode.
• -r ROOMKEY, --room=ROOMKEY — key of the room to connect to. your little key to the group chat, iykyk. 🔑
• -v, --version — print GNUnet version number. ⭐

bestie moment: the synopsis up top spells the peer identity flag --door=PEERIDENTITY, while the OPTIONS list spells it --did=PEERIDENTITY. both are literally right there in the original, so both are staying. i am not editing the source material, i am honoring it. 💖
