💖 PLANETFILTER 💖

okay bestie, so this is the manual page for the one and only planetfilter — and yeah, it lives in the General Commands Manual section, section 1, we love a section 1 icon.

✨ NAME ✨

planetfilter — a filter for blog aggregators. that's it, that's the whole vibe check. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

planetfilter [ -o outfile ] configfile

so it's giving optional output flag, mandatory config file, and honestly? clean. minimal. main character energy. 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like, this manual page documents planetfilter briefly — brief queen, she doesn't over-explain, she just is. 💅

here's the tea: planetfilter uses a blacklist to filter a blog aggregator feed. that means anyone can subscribe to popular blog aggregators without being overwhelmed by the noise. no cap, it's literally the whole point — you keep the good stuff, you filter out the chaos, you live your peaceful little feed life. 🧚✨

💜 OPTIONS 💜

okay so these programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (-). a summary of options is included below, and yes, we're going through every single one, no skipping, no skimming, we stay thorough in this house. 🫶

  • -h, --help — show a summary of the options. the classic "help me bestie" move. 🙈
  • -o outfile, --output outfile — specify the output filename. default is <STDOUT>, so if you don't say where it goes, it just goes straight to your terminal like it owns the place. 😌
  • -f, --force — overwrite the output file if it exists. heads up though: this means the file that's already there? gone. replaced. no asking. so know what you're doing before you bring the force. 💀
  • -V, --version — show version of the program. little flex, we respect it. ⭐
