💅 PC2XC(1) — the GNUstep System Manual glow-up ✨

okay bestie, so this one's from the GNUstep System Manual and it's literally about turning your old project files into Xcode ones. sit down, grab a strawberry 🍓, we're doing this together.

✨ NAME ✨

pc2xc — convert ProjectBuilder/ProjectCenter projects to Xcode

like. that's the whole vibe. glow-up your project format. no cap. 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

pc2xc input output

two args. that's it. that's the whole thing. slay.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so real talk: this manual page documents briefly the pc2xc command. yes, briefly. it's giving "we're not gonna sit here all day", and honestly? iconic. 👑

here's what it actually does: pc2xc parses an existing ProjectBuilder or ProjectCenter project and converts it to an Xcode project. that's it. that's the arc. your old project walks in, your new project walks out. main character energy from start to finish. 🦋

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

⚠️ heads up: both options are mandatory. you cannot skip one. you cannot "do it later". both. or nothing. periodt. 💅
  • input — must be a ProjectBuilder PB.project file or a ProjectCenter .pcproj directory containing a PC.project file. that's the starting point, bestie — the before picture. 📸
  • output — must be the Xcode project directory without the .xcodeproj suffix. yeah, you heard me. don't add it. the suffix is not invited to this party. 🚫✨
