💖 KJS(1) 💖

okay bestie, listen — this is the manual page for kjs, part of the KDE User's Manual crew. she's a whole interpreter, she's iconic, and she's about to be your new bestie. let's get into it 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

kjs — the KDE ECMAScript compatible interpreter. no cap, that's literally her whole job description and she does it flawlessly 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

kjs [[--help] | [-help] | [-h]] [[-e statement]] [script]

like... look at her. so many options. main character energy fr fr ✨

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

kjs is the KDE ECMAScript/JavaScript engine. that's it, that's the vibe. she runs your JavaScript and she runs it well, and honestly we're all just living in her world 🫶

👑 APPLICATION OPTIONS 👑

here's the menu, bestie. pick your fighter:

  • --help, -help, -h — shows the kjscmd usage. your girl is helpful like that, three whole ways to ask her the same question 💖
  • -e statement — runs the statement and then dips out. executes it and exits, periodt. for example:
kjs -e "print('hello world')"

see? she ate that 💅

  • script — executes all the statements chillin' inside the file script. just hand her a file and she'll read the whole thing, no questions asked 🌸

🦋 USAGE 🦋

okay so kjs file, like basically every other interpreter out there (she's not special, she's just her), when you call her with no parameters at all, opens up a little line editor so you can type statements in one at a time. and she gives you the cutest lil prompt:

JS>

so you type, she responds, you type, she responds. it's giving conversational 🌈

to get out of the line editor, type quit() or press Ctrl+D. that's your exit strategy, don't forget it, bestie — otherwise you're just gonna be sitting there vibing with the JS> prompt forever 😭
