***(1)

✨ *** (1) β€” make_slc_nsr ✨

okay so bestie, you opened the man page for ***, living in section 1 of the manual, and honestly? The manual is going through it right now. No cap. This is the whole page, and it is not okay. Let's get into it 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

  • *** β€” make_slc_nsr

that's it. that's the name. iconic, mysterious, slightly unhinged. iykyk πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so first things first, real talk: this program is part of GMTSAR. that's the one fact this page gives us and we are clinging to it πŸŽ€

and then… the moment. instead of telling you what it does, the page just screams:

*** buffer overflow detected ***: terminated

THE DRAMA. 😭 that's a buffer overflow being detected, and then it being terminated. it's giving "i tried to read my own documentation and immediately fell over." it's giving main character energy in the worst possible way πŸ’€

heads up bestie: this is the entire description. there is no options list. there is no synopsis. there are no environment variables. there is no SEE ALSO. the page detected a buffer overflow and terminated, and we're all just sitting here with it. no cap.

the page signs off with:

*** buffer overflow detected ***... May 2024

so May 2024 is the date, and ***(1) is the manual page we're on, and the source/version line is… literally the same buffer overflow error again. twice. she said it once and she said it again ✨ as she should, honestly. the girl is consistent πŸ¦‹

anyway bestie, that's the whole page. short, tragic, deeply memorable. periodt πŸ’–πŸ‘‘
