QOSMIC(1)

💅 QOSMIC — like, the manual, but make it slay

okay bestie, so this is the manual page for qosmic, and it lives in the General Commands Manual section, iykyk. it's a whole GUI situation and it's honestly iconic. let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

qosmic — a GUI to render fractal flames. that's it, that's the vibe. 🔥

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

qosmic [filename]

qosmic --help

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so basically it's a graphical interface (Qt5, periodt) for creating & rendering fractal flame (flam3) images. art but make it math, no cap. 🎀

👑 OPTIONS 👑

okay so listen — Qosmic is a GUI and it takes no command line options apart from help. that's the whole tea. 🙈

• want more help using the program? go read /usr/share/doc/qosmic/README.gz & README-LUA.gz 💖
• also peep the flam3-utils README: /usr/share/doc/flam3-utils/README.* ✨
• and lowkey, Qosmic may optionally be started with a flam3 file, so you can just hand it a file and go 🦋

Qosmic uses the palette file from flam3-palette. so if your random flames are coming out black & white (not the aesthetic you asked for, bestie 😭), then:

• install flam3-palette, and/or
• use an external palette file (extension .ugr) 💅

fr fr, if your flames are monochrome and you're like "not me getting grayscale jumpscared", that's the fix. 🫶

and that's the whole page, bestie!! this was User Commands, version dated 2022-02-03, and honestly? she ate. go render something gorgeous. 💜🌈⭐
