MGPEMBED(1)
β¨ MGPEMBED β¨
okay so bestie, welcome to mgpembed from the General Commands Manual section 1 π it's giving "tiny tool, huge slay" and honestly? we're obsessed.
πΈ NAME πΈ
mgpembed β generate an embedded MagicPoint file π
like... that's the whole job. it embeds. it MagicPoints. it serves. periodt.
π SYNOPSIS π
mgpembed [-o outfile] mgpfile
that's it. that's the whole vibe check. one optional flag, one file, go off π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so mgpembed is a converter, right? it takes a MagicPoint file β that's your mgpfile β and turns it into an embedded MagicPoint file β¨
and why would you even want that, you ask? because an embedded MagicPoint file is the move when you wanna hand your presentation off to other guys β like, via Email π§ or via Web π β because all the external references get resolved. literally all of them. except shell commands, those don't get resolved, no cap.
so it's self-contained. it's portable. it's main character energy for your slideshow π«Ά
now the -o option β she's the one who decides where the output goes. use it and your output gets saved to outfile. don't use it and... the standard output gets it instead. your call, bestie π
fr fr, if you're piping this somewhere, just don't pass -o and let stdout do its little thing π
