REP-REMOTE(1)

πŸ’– REP-REMOTE(1) πŸ’–

okay bestie, pull up a chair, we're talking about rep-remote from the librep manual, section 1, and honestly? it's giving tiny-but-mighty. no cap. πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

rep-remote β€” lowkey the whole reason your file ops can happen on somebody else's machine. it provides a protocol for executing all of librep's file operations on that host. yes, all of them. every single one. slay. πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

rep-remote [ See the `lisp/remote-rep.jl' file in the distribution for more details. ]

not me putting a whole "go read the file" inside the synopsis brackets 😭 but fr fr, that's what it says, so that's what you get. the lisp/remote-rep.jl file in the distribution has the details. go look. πŸŽ€


🫢 DESCRIPTION 🫢

so here's the vibe. the rep-remote program β€” the one that ships distributed with librep β€” must exist on the remote host. like, non-negotiable. it has to be there. πŸ‘‘

and how does it get run? via rsh, babes. that's the whole transport situation. once it's up and running over there, it provides a protocol for executing all of librep's file operations on that host. every file operation. the entire roster. main character energy for real. ✨

if you want the actual lore, go read the lisp/remote-rep.jl file in the distribution for more details. it's all in there, i'm just the messenger 🧚
