🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

gnunet-nse [-c FILENAME | --config=FILENAME] [-h | --help]
           [-L LOGLEVEL | --loglevel=LOGLEVEL]
           [-l LOGFILE | --logfile=LOGFILE] [-v | --version]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

gnunet-nse is a command line tool — and its whole main character job is to show network size estimates from the NSE service of GNUnet. no cap. 🌈

here are the options, one by one, no skipping, we don't do that here:

• -c FILENAME, --config=FILENAME — use the configuration file FILENAME. your config, your rules ✨
• -h, --help — prints a short help thing about the options. when in doubt, -h it out 💅
• -L LOGLEVEL, --loglevel=LOGLEVEL — use LOGLEVEL for logging. the valid values are DEBUG, INFO, WARNING and ERROR. pick your fighter 🎀
• -l LOGFILE, --logfile=LOGFILE — configures logging so it writes the logs to LOGFILE. receipts, but on disk 🍓
• -m, --monitor — monitor mode!! in this mode gnunet-nse will continuously print the NSE estimates instead of giving you just a snapshot. it's giving live updates, it's giving "i'm watching you", obsessed 😭🔥
• -v, --version — prints the GNUnet version number. know your version, respect your version 👑

---

🎀 FILES 🎀

• gnunet.conf — the configuration file for gnunet. yes, that one. the blueprint. the lore. 🧚

---

💜 SEE ALSO 💜

• gnunet.conf(5)

also, the full documentation for gnunet is maintained as a Texinfo manual. so if the info(1) gnunet programs are properly installed at your site, this command:

info gnunet

should give you access to the complete handbook ✨

and this one:

info gnunet-c-tutorial

will give you access to a tutorial for developers 🫶

depending on your installation, this info is also available in gnunet(7) and gnunet-c-tutorial(7). options, options, options 💫
