💖 lnpdllx — the manual page, but make it cute 💖

okay so bestie, you know how the lnpdllx(1) page in the General Commands Manual is kinda dry? yeah. we're fixing that. same facts, immaculate vibes. let's go 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

lnpdllx — a BrickOS RCX downloader that talks through the LNP Daemon 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

lnpdllx [-r{rcxnbr}] [-p{programslot}] [-s{srcport}] [-v] {filename.lx}

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So. lnpdllx is the experimental version of lnpdll(1), which is itself an lnpd-aware, limited version of the BrickOS dll(1) — the thing you use to download programs onto your RCX running BrickOS. 🎀

The way it's different from plain dll(1)? lnpdllx doesn't go poke the tty serial port directly. Nope. It communicates to the IR Tower through the LNP Daemon instead. it's giving middle-man energy, and honestly? iconic. ✨

💅 OPTIONS 💅

a lil summary of what lnpdllx understands:

  • -r {rcxnbr} — download to the RCX {rcxnbr} 👑
  • -p {slotnbr} — drop the downloaded program into {slotnbr} ([1-8] for BrickOS) 🎀
  • -s {srcport} — the port you're sending the data from 📡
  • -v — turn on verbose messages, so it tells you everything 🗣️
  • -h — show a similar help text right at the command line 🆘

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

also, you'll find additional documentation in /usr/share/doc/lnpd (on Debian GNU/Linux systems) 📚
