MHA-DBEDIT(1)

✨ NAME ✨

mha-dbedit — make database edits to a MHonArc archive 💅

(and yes bestie, this is page 1 of the manual, part of the MHonArc docs set 🎀)

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

mha-dbedit [options]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so mha-dbedit is a utility program that's part of the MHonArc software package 🫶. What it does is let you make edits to an archive database without touching any of the HTML pages. like, the database gets its little glow-up and the HTML stays exactly where it is, untouched, unbothered, thriving ✨. it's giving surgical precision tbh.

Now, the documentation for MHonArc? it's distributed in HTML format. And because it's so big and so extra, it is not suited for manpage format 💀 — there's just too much of it. So if you wanna read the real thing, go ask your system administrator where the documentation has been installed 📁. Or, alternatively, peek at "AVAILABILITY" below, which tells you where you can access the documentation on the web 🌐.

✨ EXAMPLE ✨

typical usage, the classic, the icon:

shell> mha-dbedit -rcfile res.mrc -outdir /path/to/archive

like look at her go 👑. -rcfile res.mrc for the resource file, -outdir /path/to/archive pointing at where the archive lives. periodt.
