💖 LUMINA-DESKTOP(1) — the general commands manual, but make it cute 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the lumina-desktop page, section 1 of the General Commands Manual. yes, that section 1. the one for user commands. we love her. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

lumina-desktop — the binary you run to launch or talk to the desktop. that's it, that's the whole vibe. 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

lumina-desktop

lumina-desktop --check-geoms

lumina-desktop --version

three ways in, no notes. 💅

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

The lumina-desktop utility starts instances of the Lumina desktop, or communicates with ones that are already out there living their truth. main character energy fr fr. ✨

⚠️ bestie, listen: the start-lumina-desktop command is recommended over lumina-desktop. so like, if you're actually trying to boot the thing, go read the SEE ALSO section instead of raw-dogging this binary. not me warning you twice. 😭

here are the lumina-desktop options, and yes there are only two, she's lowkey a minimalist:

  • --check-geoms — pings the desktop and asks it to verify and/or match whatever your current monitor settings are. like a vibe check but for your displays. 🖥️✨
  • --version — spits out the currently installed version of Lumina. that's it. iconic behaviour honestly. 👑

🧚 EXAMPLES 🧚

lumina-desktop --version

returns:

"1.2.1"

which is, of course, the user's installed version of Lumina. (the quotes are part of the output, bestie, i don't make the rules. 💀)

🍓 FILES 🍓

  • /usr/local/bin/lumina-desktop — where the binary lives. her home address. 🏠
  • /usr/local/share/lumina-desktop/ — the master directory, containing all the sub-directories and auxiliary files related to the Lumina runtime. the whole backstage area. 🎬
  • ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/lumina-desktop/ — the directory holding your configuration files. yes, yours specifically. and if you're confused about that environment variable, go peep https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/latest/ar01s03.html for more info about it. 🫶

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

  • lumina-open.1
  • start-lumina-desktop.8

(iykyk. go read the second one if you're trying to actually start the desktop, remember? 👀)
