💅 parrot_mount — the manual page, but make it make sense

okay so this is parrot_mount(1), a page straight outta the Cooperative Computing Tools family 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

parrot_mount — mount new directories inside of a Parrot instance, bestie 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

parrot_mount <path> <destination> <permissions>

---

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

So here's the vibe: parrot_mount utilizes Parrot system calls to change the namespace of the parrot filesystem while it is running. Like, no restart, no drama, it just swaps things around live. 🔥

New mount points can be added with read, write, or execute permissions, and existing mount points can be removed. You're literally rearranging your whole filesystem situation mid-session, which is lowkey iconic.

And if you wanna shut all that down? The namespace can be locked down with the --disable option, which prevents any further changes in the current session. Once you do that, that's it, no take-backs, periodt. 🔒

• --unmount <path> — Unmount a previously mounted path. Say bye bestie 👋
• --disable — Disable any further mounting/unmounting in this parrot session. Locked. Sealed. Delivered. 💀

---

🫶 EXIT STATUS 🫶

• On success, returns zero. slay ✨
• On failure, returns non-zero. not slay 😭

---

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

Mount a remote Chirp filesystem as a read-only data directory:

% parrot_run bash
% parrot_mount /chirp/fs.somewhere.edu/data /data R

Umount the same directory:

parrot_mount --unmount /data

see how easy that was?? ate and left no crumbs 💅
