πŸ’… NAME

okay so bestie, maa-mangen β€” it's the man page generator. that's literally its whole thing. it generates man pages ✨


🌸 SYNOPSIS

maa mangen <--path> [--batch] [-v|--verbose]... [-q|--quiet]...
[--log-file] [-h|--help]

like, that's the shape of it. <--path> is required, everything else is your little garnish πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION

Generate man page. yep β€” that's the description, no cap. it makes man pages. iconic behavior, honestly πŸ‘‘


✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • --path <PATH> β€” this is where the output file goes, bestie. the path of the output file. that's it, that's the whole vibe πŸ“
  • --batch β€” turns on batch mode 🫢

so here's the tea: if your task file has some input parameters in it, you'd normally get prompts popping up asking you to type stuff in. in batch mode? those prompts get skipped, and the parameters just get set to their default values. no questions, no waiting, just vibes 🧚

  • -v, --verbose β€” bumps the verbosity up. repeat it for more verbosity β€” yes, you can stack it, go off πŸ“’
  • -q, --quiet β€” the opposite, it brings the verbosity down. repeat it for more quiet. stack away, shhh 🀫
  • --log-file[=<PATH>] β€” sends your log to a file instead of stderr πŸ“

and if you don't hand it a log file, it writes to $(maa dir log)/YYYY/MM/DD/HH:MM:SS.log β€” yes, literally dated and timestamped down to the hour, minute and second. organized queen behavior πŸ’…

  • -h, --help β€” prints the help. and lowkey β€” it says "see a summary with '-h'", so the short one gives you the summary version. cute ✨

ok quick vibe check before you dip: --path <PATH> is in the synopsis with those angle brackets, so don't forget to actually give it a path, bestie 😭

made with love by mangen πŸ’– β€” that's the maa-mangen(1) of the General Commands Manual, and you caught it on the date stamped in that footer. mwah 🫢🌈
