💖 HIME(1) — the hime input method platform, bestie edition 💖

okay so this is a page from the hime input method platform's manual, and today we're talking about one very specific little icon: hime-gb-toggle. she's small, she's powerful, she does exactly one thing and she does it flawlessly. main character energy fr. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

hime-gb-toggle — hime's Chinese conversion toggle tool 🌸

like. that's the whole job description. and she ate. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

hime-gb-toggle

that's it. no flags, no arguments, no options, no chaos. she takes nothing. you just run her and she goes. iconic behaviour honestly 🫶

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the tea, bestie: hime-gb-toggle toggles hime's output between traditional Chinese and simplified Chinese. 🔁

that's literally it. you run it, the script flips, and your output switches from one form to the other. flip it again and you're back where you started. it's giving light switch, it's giving toggle, it's giving exactly what it says on the tin. no cap. ✨

lowkey the whole tool is one verb and zero arguments and honestly? that's the dream. no ambiguity, no manpage scrolling, no "wait which flag was it". she simply toggles. 👑
