🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so this manual page is giving you the brief rundown of the commands that ship with the libmtp package — collectively known as mtp-tools. that's the vibe. 💖

and here's the tea: this manual page was written specifically for the Debian distribution, because the original programs do not have manual pages of their own. wild, i know. 😭

also lowkey useful: some of the commands bundled with mtp-tools may give you a concise synopsis if you run them with -h. so if you're ever like "bestie what are your flags", try that. ⭐

👀 SEE ALSO 👀

the sourceforge link. iconic. go look. 🔥
