KSFLATTEN(1)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, meet ksflatten — she flattens a kickstart file. that's it, that's the job. this one comes to you straight from the General Commands Manual, and she is so ready to inline your includes. 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

ksflatten [-c | --config INFILE]  [-o | --output OUTFILE]  [-v |
--version VERSION]

no cap, that's the whole vibe check. three flags, zero drama. 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the tea, bestie: ksflatten is a program that takes an input kickstart file — one that potentially contains includes — and generates an output file with all the includes inlined. 🫶

it's giving "un-nest my whole life please." one file in, one fully flattened file out, no includes left lurking. iconic behavior honestly. ✨

💀 EXIT STATUS 💀

• 0 — success, she ate, everything went perfect 🎀
• 1 — either INFILE does not exist, or there was an error parsing the kickstart file 😭

not me checking $? after every run... do it. it's free. 💅

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• -c, --config INFILE — the name of the input kickstart file. this is the file you're feeding her, the main character of the operation. 🍓
• -o, --output OUTFILE — write the flattened kickstart file to OUTFILE. and if you give her no filename at all? she writes to stdout instead. queen of flexibility. 🌈
• -v, --version VERSION — use this version of kickstart syntax when processing the file. don't specify one and she'll just use the latest. no thoughts, head empty, newest syntax. ⭐

go hang out with her friends, they're all lovely. 🧚

💜 and that's the whole page, bestie! this was KSFLATTEN(1) from the General Commands Manual — go forth, flatten some kickstarts, and remember: all the includes, inlined, periodt. 🎀✨🔥
