MACRO1(1)
β¨ MACRO1 β¨
ok so this is the MACRO1(1) page, bestie β it lives in the General Commands Manual section of your man pages, and it's giving "short and sweet, we don't gatekeep" energy. let's get into it π
πΈ NAME πΈ
macro1 β the PDP1 macro assembler. that's it, that's the whole name section, no notes. π«Ά
π SYNOPSIS π
macro1
literally just run it. no flags, no arguments, no drama. main character energy β¨
π DESCRIPTION π
ok so real talk: this manual page documents briefly the macro1 command. that's the vibe. it's a little overview, not the whole saga.
and here's the tea β β this page was written for the Debian distribution, because the original program does not have a manual page. so Debian said "fine, we'll do it ourselves" and honestly? iconic. πββοΈ
π¦ OPTIONS π¦
Under construction π§
bestie that is genuinely what it says. no options listed yet. we're all waiting. π§β¨
π AUTHOR π
this manual page was written by Vince Mulhollon <vlm@debian.org>, for the Debian GNU/Linux system β but lowkey it may be used by others too, so go off π
and that's the whole page bestie!! π this one was dated March 23, 2002, and the footer vibes are all MACRO1(1) β General Commands Manual, the whole classic man-page aesthetic. slay, stay assembled, drink water πππΈ
