💖 lnptest — the LNP Client Test App 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the lnptest(1) page, aka the General Commands Manual moment you didn't know you needed 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

lnptest — LNP Client Test Application 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

lnptest

that's it. that's the whole synopsis. no flags, no args, just vibes 💅

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so lnptest is an LNP Daemon test client, and its whole personality is checking the connection between lnptest and the LNP daemon — the signal goes through the Ir Tower and lands at a corresponding test program running in an RCX. that's the entire job. it's giving "quality control but make it infrared" ✨

also, heads up: the source code for that RCX-side test program is distributed with this package, and you can find its location down in the FILES section 👀 keep scrolling bestie.

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

lnptest does not support command-line options.

no cap. zero flags. she simply does not take requests 💀

🌈 USAGE 🌈

okay so here's the run-the-test checklist, in order, do not skip steps:

  1. compile the lnptest.c RCX program
  2. start the lnpd daemon
  3. download the lnptest.lx program to the RCX
  4. (at the RCX) run the program just downloaded to the RCX
  5. run this lnptest program
  6. inspect the output looking for lack of failure messages 👑
lowkey the whole game here is: if you don't see failure messages, you ate. if you do see them… bestie we need to talk 🙈

🧚 FILES 🧚

  • /usr/share/doc/lnpd/examples/rcx — in this directory lives the source to the RCX-side program. plot twist: it's called lnptest.c, but it's written to be compiled against BrickOS. iconic naming chaos, honestly 🌸

⭐ SEE ALSO ⭐

you can find additional documentation in /usr/share/doc/lnpd (on Debian GNU/Linux systems) 💖
