🌸 ISO-INFO(1) — the iso-info page, bestie edition 🌸

okay so like, this is section 1 of the manual (User Commands, iykyk) and honestly? it's giving "let me peek inside your ISO" and I'm obsessed 💅

✨ NAME ✨

iso-info — shows Information about an ISO 9660 image 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

iso-info [OPTION...]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. options only, no positional args, periodt ✨

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so here's the thing bestie, this whole section is literally just the option list. no setup, no lore, we go straight in. respect honestly 👑

  • -d, --debug=UINT — sets debugging to LEVEL. that's UINT, so a number, no cap 🔍
  • -i, --input[=FILE] — the filename to read the ISO-9960 image from 📀 (yes it says "ISO-9960", I'm just reading it to you exactly, don't come for me)
  • -f — generates output similar to find . -print 🌈 no long form for this one, she's solo
  • -l, --iso9660 — output similar to ls -lR for an ISO 9660 fs 🗂️
  • -U, --udf — output similar to ls -lR for a UDF fs 🗂️ (different fs, same energy)
  • --no-header — don't display header and copyright (for regression. yep, the paren is just... open. left hanging. we love an unfinished thought 🙈
  • --no-joliet — don't use Joliet-extension information 🚫
  • --no-rock-ridge — don't use Rock-Ridge-extension information 🚫 (not me typing Rock-Ridge twice)
  • --no-xa — don't use XA-extension information 🚫
  • -r --show-rock-ridge UINT — show if image uses Rock-Ridge extensions. a maximum of UINT files will be considered. use 0 for all files 👑 (yes, that's written without a comma between -r and the long form — copying it exactly, character for character, fr fr)
  • -q, --quiet — don't produce warning output 🤫
  • -V, --version — display version and copyright information and exit 🎬

🌟 Help options: 🌟

  • -?, --help — show this help message 🫶
  • --usage — display brief usage message 💬

lowkey that last block is literally just the driver status dump printed verbatim in the copyright section. I'm not fixing it, I'm not arguing with it, it lives here now 💀
