πΈ NAME πΈ
nfoview β a viewer for NFO files π¦
π SYNOPSIS π
nfoview [FILE...]
π DESCRIPTION π
nfoview is a simple viewer for NFO files β and if you're like "what even is an NFO file", bestie it's "ASCII" art in the CP437 codepage. yes. art. made of characters. iconic behavior fr fr π¨β¨
so why would you use nfoview instead of just opening it in a text editor? not me asking the real questions π because the glow-up is real:
- preset font and encoding settings π
- automatic window size π
- clickable hyperlinks π₯
it's giving "text editor could never". periodt π
