🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so memping is your little vibe-check tool: you can use it to ping a memcached server and see if it’s accepting connections. like, is the server alive and taking new friends? yes ma’am, that’s the whole point 💖

bestie, here’s every single flag — no skipping, no cap:

• -h, --help — display help. it’s giving “show me the map” energy 🗺️✨
• -V, --version — display version. know your era, queen 👑
• -q, --quiet — operate quietly. shhh, main character silence 🤫💜
• -v, --verbose — operate more verbosely. say more, bestie 🗣️🔥
• -d, --debug — literally says see -v|--verbose, so it’s the same debug-ish lane 👀
• -u, --username <username> — use <username> for SASL authentication 🪪

🧚 NOTES 🧚

🎀 PROGRAM PREFIX 🎀

okay so real talk: the prefix of this program is variable, i.e. it can be configured at build time. very build-your-own-icon energy 🛠️✨

usually the client programs of libmemcached-awesome are prefixed with mem, like memcat or memcp. iconic. 🍓

it can be configured, though, to replace the prefix with something else like mc; in case of that, the client programs of libmemcached-awesome would be called mccat, mccp, etc. respectively. no cap 💅
