✨ lcm_sink(1) — the LCM manual, section 1 ✨

okay bestie, gather round 🫶 this is lcm_sink, and it lives in the Lightweight Communications and Marshalling (LCM) manual, section 1. yes that's the same LCM, the whole project. let's get into it 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

lcm_sink — dumps the contents of received message to stdout

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

lcm_sink

that's it. that's the whole invocation. no flags, no args, no drama. iconic honestly 👑

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

lcm_sink is a little utility for testing the Lightweight Communications library (LC). lcm_source listens for messages on all LC channels and dumps the contents of the received messages to stdout. periodt.

and here's the tea, bestie 😭 it will attempt to print unprintable characters, which — ngl — may mess with some terminals when it's receiving binary data. so if your terminal starts acting possessed, that's why. not a bug, just the vibe. 💀
