💖 josm-installer — the manual page, but make it slay 💖

okay so bestie, you know the josm-installer command? this is its whole entire manual page, rewritten for you, with literally zero facts missing. let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

josm-installer — install JOSM JAR files. that's it. that's the name. iconic behavior honestly 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

josm-installer [OPTIONS]

short, sweet, and it takes OPTIONS. main character energy fr fr.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so josm-installer is a little helper script 💖 its whole job? downloading the JOSM JAR files that the josm executable actually uses. like it's the backstage crew for the star of the show, no cap.

the JAR files it downloads? they live in /usr/share/josm. that's home. that's where they stay. 🏠✨

and here's the tea 👀 — if josm.jar does not exist, then josm will suggest you go run josm-installer to download the latest JAR. it's literally josm being like "bestie… pls… run the installer" 😭 so thoughtful of it honestly.

💅 OPTIONS 💅

every single flag, present and accounted for:

  • -J PATH, --jar-dir PATH — tell it where to stash the JAR file. default is /usr/share/josm, so if you don't say anything it just goes with the classic 🎀
  • -L, --latest — install the latest instead of the tested one. living on the edge, we love that for you 🔥
  • -f, --force — force the download. no hesitation, no questions, just download periodt 💀
  • -d, --debug — turn on debug output. for when you need to see everything 👑
  • -v, --verbose — turn on verbose output. chatty mode activated 🗣️✨
🌈 little vibe check before you go: -L gives you latest instead of tested, and -J PATH changes where your JARs land (default /usr/share/josm). those are the two that actually change behavior, so don't sleep on 'em 😌

🎀 sign-off 🎀

and that's the whole page, bestie — every option, every path, every default, all of it, untouched and unbothered 🫶 this little gem comes from the josm-installer(1) manual page, dated 30 March 2026.

now go forth and josm-installer responsibly 💖✨🌸
