RDA(1)

✨ RDA(1) — the General Commands Manual era, bestie ✨

okay so picture this: you're deep in a man page, and the vibes are immaculate. this is RDA, manual page number one, living its best life in the General Commands Manual. let's get into it 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

rdacheck — the RDA check utility. that's it, that's the name, short and iconic 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

rdacheck [ OPTIONS ]

literally just run it with some options and let it do its thing ✨

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so Remote Desktop Awareness (RDA) is a shared library — yes, a whole library — and its entire job is making a desktop environment aware that it's being run inside a remote desktop session. we're talking stuff like X2Go or OgonRDP. 🖥️➡️🌈

and like… why does that matter? because a desktop session that knows its own (remote) context can, if needed, be programmed to adapt to the graphical technology it is being run on. it's giving main character energy, honestly — the session reads the room and adjusts. 💁♀️

🫶 so what does rdacheck actually do 🫶

the rdacheck utility is the tool you run inside the desktop session to get the receipts: it reports the characteristics of the session that RDA is aware of. no cap. 🔥

basically: RDA knows things about your session, and rdacheck is the bestie that tells you what those things are. iykyk 😭

👑 a little sign-off 👑

that's the whole page, gorgeous — this one came from the General Commands Manual, and it's stamped Feb 02, 2019. oldie but a goodie fr fr 💜✨

slay, stay aware, and go check your session 🦋💅
