POSTMARK(1)

💖 POSTMARK(1) — the postmark girlies' guide 💖

okay bestie, welcome to Postmark (section 1 of the manual, iykyk) — the file system benchmark program by NetApp. yes, that NetApp. she's iconic, she's testing your disk, and she's about to be your whole personality for the next hour. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

postmark — file system benchmark program by NetApp.

like literally that's the whole vibe. it benchmarks file systems. NetApp made her. periodt. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

postmark [config-file]

so it's giving optional config-file energy. one lil argument, huge main character potential. 🎀

💫 DESCRIPTION 💫

okay so this manual page documents briefly the postmark program. and when I say briefly I mean briefly, we're keeping it cute and short, no cap. 🙈

when you run postmark, it gives you a command-line interface where you get to configure and run tests. that's the whole thing. you're in charge. you're the main character. you're configuring. you're running tests. slay. ✨

and if you're ever like "bestie what do I even do here" — the help command displays basic information on how to operate it. so type help. it will help. the way that's so on the nose and yet so necessary. 😭

also!! the name of a text file containing commands may be specified on the command line. so instead of typing everything by hand like a Victorian orphan, you can just hand her a file full of commands. that's the config-file in the synopsis btw, in case you weren't connecting those dots. 🔥

real talk though: the next version of this man page will have more information. so this is the lowkey version. she's still growing. she's in her draft era. 💀

okay that's the whole page, bestie!! it was short, it was sweet, it was giving minimal-effort-maximum-iconic. go benchmark something. 💜
