metar_ls — manual page for metar_ls

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

💖 NAME 💖

metar_ls

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

List the content of METAR files, printing out the values of some keys. 🫶

And here's the part that matters the most, so listen up: it does not fail when a key is not found. she's chill like that. no drama, no error, just vibes.

⭐ USAGE ⭐

metar_ls [options] file file ...

yep, that's it. options first, then as many files as your heart desires. periodt.

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• -p key[:{s|d|i}],key[:{s|d|i}],... — declaring which keys you want printed. for each key you can ask for a string (key:s), a double (key:d) or an integer (key:i) type. if you don't say, the default type is string. the "just print what I ask for" energy 💅
• -F format — a C-style format for floating-point values. so like, how you want your decimals to look 🎀
• -P key[:{s|d|i}],key[:{s|d|i}],... — literally the same thing as -p, except it adds the declared keys to the default list instead of replacing it. same syntax, same type rules (s, d, i, default string).
• -w key[:{s|d|i}]{=|!=}value,key[:{s|d|i}]{=|!=}value,... — the where clause 🕵️ messages get processed only if they match all the key/value constraints. a valid constraint looks like key=value or key!=value. for each key you can specify a string (key:s), a double (key:d) or an integer (key:i) type, and the default type is string. in the value you can also use the forward-slash character / to specify an OR condition (i.e. a logical disjunction).

⚠️ note note note: only one -w clause is allowed. one. uno. don't push it 😭

• -s key[:{s|d|i}]=value,key[:{s|d|i}]=value,... — key/values to set. for each key a string (key:s), a double (key:d) or an integer (key:i) type can be defined. by default the native type is set — she's not gonna guess for you, she's gonna use what's already there 🌈
• -n namespace — prints all the keys belonging to the given namespace. everything. the whole friend group 👯
• -m — prints all the keys belonging to the 'mars' namespace. that's it, that's the whole flag. iconic, no notes 🪐
• -V — print version. say hi to her 🫶
• -W width — minimum width of each column in the output. default is 10. so if your columns are looking cramped, this is the glow-up ✨
• -g — copy GTS header. 📋
• -7 — does not fail when the message has wrong length. yes bestie, the flag is literally just the number seven. she's quirky 💀

🙈 the plot twist 🙈

okay so not me reading this page and finding out it literally repeats itself — the NAME, DESCRIPTION, USAGE and the entire OPTIONS block are printed a second time, word for word, including every single flag (-p, -F, -P, -w, -s, -n, -m, -V, -W, -g, -7) with all their descriptions. same content, twice, front to back. it's giving glitch, it's giving copy-paste, and honestly? she's serving regardless. no info lost, you just get the remix 😭💖

she's metar_ls, and she's from the metar_ls source, dated October 2026 — that's the version and date, bestie, all tucked into this little sign-off. now go print some keys, you absolute main character 👑✨🌸
