💖 KYUA-ABOUT(1) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the kyua about page — this is the general commands manual entry for it, and honestly? it's giving "meet the team" energy. it shows you the detailed authors, license, and version info for the kyua tool. lowkey iconic. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

kyua about — shows detailed authors, license, and version information 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

kyua about [authors | license | version]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so the about command is literally your one-stop spot for generic information about the kyua(1) tool. when you run it in the default synopsis form (aka no arguments at all, just vibes), the info it prints includes:

  1. the name of the package, which is kyua. 🫶
  2. the version number, which is 0.14.1. ✨
  3. license information. 📜
  4. authors information. 👑
  5. a link to the project web site. 🌈

and here's the slay part — you can customize what gets printed by passing the topic you want as the single argument to the command. it can be one of these three besties:

  • authors — displays the list of authors and contributors only.
  • license — displays the license information and the list of copyrights.
  • version — displays the package name and the version number in a format that is compatible with the output of GNU tools that support a --version flag. use this whenever you have to query the version number of the package. fr fr, that's the one you want for scripting. 🔥

🎀 FILES 🎀

these are the files that the kyua about command reads (yes, it actually goes and reads them, no cap):

  • /usr/share/doc/kyua/AUTHORS — list of authors (aka copyright holders).
  • /usr/share/doc/kyua/CONTRIBUTORS — list of contributors (aka individuals that have contributed to the project).
  • /usr/share/doc/kyua/LICENSE — license information.

⭐ EXIT STATUS ⭐

the kyua about command always returns 0. like, always. it's the most unbothered command in the whole suite, it has never once been stressed. 😌

additional exit codes may be returned as described in kyua(1).

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

and that's the whole page, bestie! this one comes to you from Debian, dated May 20, 2015, and yes it's still sitting pretty under the KYUA-ABOUT(1) title. go query that version number with confidence. 🦋💜
