💅 MLHEAD — the manual, but make it cute

okay bestie, welcome to mlhead(1) — she's a user command, she's iconic, and she's about to make your log-reading life SO much easier. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

mlhead — it's a head frontend for multilog files. that's it, that's the vibe. 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

mlhead [OPTION]... SERVICE [CAT-OPTION]...

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

literally a head frontend for multilog files. no cap.

  • -h, --help — shows you the help and then dips. 👋
  • -V, --version — shows you the version and then dips. ✌️

this utility is a frontend for head, so you can easily head logfiles from services running under daemontools. 🫶 the way that works is: you just specify the service name — which is the name of the service directory without the leading path. then after the service name, you can specify any head options you want. see the man page for head for more infos, bestie. 💀

lowkey the whole point is that you don't have to type out the full path yourself. she just gets you. 🧚

😭 REPORTING BUGS 😭

found a bug? not the vibe. report it to Klaus Reimer <k@ailis.de>. 🐛
