✨ PSICONV-CONFIG(1) ✨

okay bestie, gather round, because we're talking about psiconv-config — the little script from psiconv 0.9.8 that spills all the tea about your install 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

psiconv-config — a script that tells you everything about the installed version of Psiconv 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

psiconv-config [--prefix[=DIR]] [--exec-prefix[=DIR]] [--version]
[--libs] [--cflags] [LIBRARIES]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so like. psiconv-config is the tool you run to figure out which compiler and linker flags you need when you're compiling and linking programs that use psiconv 🫶

it's also used internally by the .m4 macros for GNU autoconf that ship with psiconv, so yes, it's the main character in more ways than one 👑

✨ OPTIONS ✨

psiconv-config accepts the following options, and they're all kind of iconic ngl:

  • LIBRARIES — psiconv has literally one library, <pink>psiconv</pink>. if you specify one of them, only the appropriate things for that library get printed 💅
  • --version — prints the currently installed version of psiconv to the standard output. yes queen, tell us who you are 💖
  • --libs — prints the linker flags you need to link a psiconv program 🔗
  • --cflags — prints the compiler flags you need to compile a psiconv program ⚙️
  • --prefix=PREFIX — if you specify this, it uses PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that psiconv was built with when it computes the output for the --cflags and --libs options. it's also used for the exec prefix if --exec-prefix wasn't specified 🙈
⚠️ real talk: this option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options. order matters, bestie, don't test it 😭
  • --exec-prefix=PREFIX — if you specify this, it uses PREFIX instead of the installation exec prefix that psiconv was built with when it computes the output for the --cflags and --libs options 🌈
⚠️ same energy: this option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options. put it first, fr fr 💀
