✨ NAME ✨

plsense — Omni completion tool for Perl

like. it completes your Perl. for you. main character energy fr fr 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

plsense [Option] [Command] argument...

plsense [Option] -i

so basically you either give it an Option plus a Command plus whatever argument... it needs, OR you just hit it with an Option and -i and go hang out interactively. two moods, both valid 🦋

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

PlSense is a development tool for Perl. no cap. and what does it do? it provides Completion/Help about Module/Function/Variable — but optimized for context. like it actually knows where you are and what you're doing. the way that it just gets you?? 😭✨

---

💅 OPTIONS 💅

every single flag, no skips, we don't do that here:

• --logfile — path of the log file. where the tea gets written down 📝
• --loglevel — level of logging. its value is for Log::Handler. (iykyk, that's the module doing the actual work)
• --maxtasks — limit the count of tasks that run on the server process. keeps things from going feral.
• --port1 — port number for listening by the main server process. default is 33333.
• --port2 — port number for listening by the work server process. default is 33334.
• --port3 — port number for listening by the resolve server process. default is 33335.
• -c, --cachedir — path of the directory caching information for Completion/Help. the lil stash spot 🍓
• -h, --help — show this message. your bestie when you're lost.
• -i, --interactive — run interactively. vibe with it live ✨
• -v, --version — show version.

three ports, three server processes — 33333, 33334, 33335 — don't mix em up or it's giving chaos 💀
