💖 LUMINA-ARCHIVER 💖

okay bestie, welcome to lumina-archiver(1) from the General Commands Manual — she's a graphical front-end to tar who manages and creates archives, and honestly? she ate. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

lumina-archiver — a graphical front-end to tar. Manages and creates archives. that's it, that's the girl. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

lumina-archiver [--burn-img FILE] [--ax FILE] [--aa NEW_ARCHIVE FILES]
                [--sx ARCHIVE EXTRACT_PATH]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so lumina-archiver is a graphical front end to the tar utility. iconic behaviour, no notes.

she also includes limited support for copying USB images to a USB device — and the way she does that is by using the dd utility. so yeah.

lumina-archiver requires two runtime utilities: tar and dd. fr fr, both of them:

  • tar — this one is the backend archive control system, she's the main character of the archive situation 💖
  • dd — this one is what copies an image file (*.img) over to a USB device 🫶

Arguments for lumina-archiver include:

  • --burn-img — this launches the burn dialog when lumina-archiver loads. 🔥 (fitting, given the name, honestly)
  • --ax — this auto-extracts a file into a new directory with the same name as the given file. self-titled era ✨
  • --aa — auto extracts files into a new archive the user designates. you pick the archive, she does the rest 💅
  • --sx — designate an archive and path to place extracted files. you choose where they land 🎀

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

% lumina-archiver --burn-img ./TrueOS-2017-07-05-x64-USB.img

Opens the burn dialog for TrueOS-2017-07-05-x64-USB.img. 🔥

% lumina-archiver --ax ./lumina-master.zip

Auto-extracts lumina-master.zip into a directory called lumina-master. the way she names the folder after the file… so satisfying, lowkey 😭
