HR(1)

HR(1) 💖

Okay so welcome to HR(1) from the General Commands Manual — yes, the manual name is literally right there near the top, and this whole page is about hr, the horizontal-rule icon she is. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

hr — insert horizontal rule. That's the name, that's the game, no cap. 🎀

🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

The whole synopsis is literally this:

hr [|*~#]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

The hr utility prints a horizontal rule for the width of the terminal. That's the job. She shows up, she fills the whole width, she leaves. Iconic. 💅

💀 EXIT STATUS 💀

On success, hr exits 0; if an error occurs, it exits >0. fr fr. 😭

🍓 EXAMPLES 🍓

Okay bestie, examples time. Slay. 🔥

The command:

hr

will print # across the width of the terminal. Obsessed. ✨

The command:

hr - '#' -

will print:

----------------------------------
##################################
----------------------------------

The command:

hr '-#-' '-' '-#-'

will print:
