✨ NAME ✨

ok so you opened UNLINK(1) — that's section 1 of the manual, the user-commands zone 💅 — and this lil page is all about unlink: the command that calls the unlink function to remove the specified file.

yeah bestie. that's it. that's the whole job. it removes one file. no cap.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

unlink FILE
unlink OPTION

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Call the unlink function to remove the specified FILE. that's the entire mission statement, and honestly? iconic for it. 🫶

then there's the two options that everyone yells for when they're lost:

  • --help — display this help and exit. your little rescue lifeline bestie 🎀
  • --version — output version information and exit. for when you gotta confirm exactly which build you're living in ✨
ngl those two options are just listed right there in the description area of the page, so i'm putting them right here with the description, exactly where the manpage put them. no notes. 💖
