pastel-complement(1)

🌸 pastel-complement 🌸

okay bestie, you found the page for pastel-complement — it's the little command that grabs you the complementary color (that's the hue rotated by 180°, no cap). It lives in the General Commands Manual, so you already know it's iconic. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

pastel-complement — get the complementary color (hue rotated by 180°) 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

pastel complement [-h|--help] [color]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so basically: it computes the complementary color by rotating the HSL hue channel by 180°. that's it. that's the whole vibe. the hue goes spinny and you get the opposite one. periodt. ✨

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• -h, --help — prints the help. lowkey note: if you want the short version, hit it with just -h. 🫶
• [color] — the color you wanna complement-ify. and bestie, colors come in so many formats, it's giving versatility:
  • #RRGGBB
  • RRGGBB
  • #RGB
  • 'rgb(…, …, …)'
  • 'hsl(…, …, …)'
  • 'gray(…)'
  • or literally just the name of the color 🎀

oh and two special little identifiers for you:

• - → reads a single color from standard input 🍓
• pick → runs an external color picker so you can choose a color with your eyeballs 💅

and if you don't pass a color argument at all? no worries, it just reads colors from standard input. fr fr.

here are examples — and not me telling you that ALL of these specify the same color 😭

'#778899'
778899
789
'rgb(119, 136, 153)'
'119,136,153'
'hsl(210, 14.3%, 53.3%)'

alpha transparency is also supported, because we're thorough like that ✨

'#77889980'
'rgba(119, 136, 153, 0.5)'
'hsla(210, 14.3%, 53.3%, 50%)'

reminder bestie: if you give it nothing, it's not gonna be sad — it just reads from standard input instead. 🫶

okay that's the whole page, slay. this was pastel-complement(1) from the General Commands Manual — the footer tag says complement / pastel-complement(1), and that's the whole sign-off. go rotate some hues, you main character. 💖🌈👑
