πŸ’– LINUXCNC_INFO πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to LINUXCNC_INFO(1) β€” part of The Enhanced Machine Controller manual family. this one's short, sweet, and honestly so useful. let's get into it 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

linuxcnc_info β€” the little tool that collects information about the LinuxCNC version and the host πŸ•΅οΈβ™€οΈπŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

linuxcnc_info

that's it. no flags, no args, no drama. she just goes ✨


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so linuxcnc_info supplies information about the LinuxCNC version and system info. literally what it says on the tin, no cap.

here's the vibe: it creates a text file and then opens it in the default text editor. so you run it, a file pops up, and everything you'd ever want to know about your LinuxCNC install and your host machine is just right there in front of you. it's giving "receipts" and honestly? iconic πŸ‘‘


πŸ’œ SEE ALSO πŸ’œ

also bestie, if you want the deep lore, there is Much more information about LinuxCNC and HAL available in the LinuxCNC and HAL User Manuals, found at /usr/share/doc/LinuxCNC/. go read, iykyk πŸ“šβœ¨


πŸ’€ BUGS πŸ’€

so... it appears to hang until the text editor is closed. 😭

no it's not broken, it's not frozen, it's not ghosting you β€” it's just waiting on the editor like a loyal bestie holding your bag. close the editor, and it'll let go. periodt.
