lsi-write(1)

💬 NAME 💬

lsi-write — bestie, this is the manual page for lsi-write (that's section 1, ofc 💅), and what it does is send a message to a slack user or channel. That's it. That's the whole job. Iconic, honestly.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

lsi-write [OPTIONS] user

okay so you give it a user, you sprinkle in some [OPTIONS] if you're feeling spicy, and off it goes 🦋

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So the lore is: this was inspired by the classical write, and it works more or less in the same way. Like, if you know write, you already get the vibe. iykyk 💖

It uses the control socket of a localslackirc instance to send messages to a user or channel. That's the whole magic trick — it borrows the socket, drops your message in, done. No cap. ✨

🎀 Options: 🎀

• -h, --help — shows you the help message and then dips (exits). That's it, that's the whole thing. 🫶
• --control-socket CONTROL_SOCKET — okay so normally the tool just figures out the socket path on its own. But if the path to the socket cannot be auto-detected, you must use this option to indicate the path to connect to the control socket. Like, it's not optional at that point, bestie, it's the whole assignment 😭

Also fyi: if there is only one instance running, the control socket will be autodetected and used. So most of the time you literally don't have to do anything. main character energy of the socket tbh 👑
