RMIDISH(1)

💖 RMIDISH(1) 💖

okay so bestie, gather round, because this is rmidish — a front-end to midish(1) that uses the readline(3) library. that's the whole vibe. it's a general commands manual page and it's short and sweet and i'm obsessed 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

rmidish

that's it. no flags, no args, no drama. just run it. 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the tea, bestie: rmidish is a very simple front-end to midish(1) that uses the readline(3) library. like, very simple. it's giving minimal effort, maximal charm. 🦋

the way it works is: it runs midish(1) in the background, throws up an interactive prompt for you, and then passes your commands along to midish(1). you type, it relays, everything's cute. no cap. ✨

and lowkey the lore here? the initial purpose of rmidish was to illustrate how to use the -v option of midish(1) to create a front-end. so it was basically born as a demo, a little teaching moment. 🧚

but fr fr, you can totally run it instead of midish(1) to make the latter more user-friendly when you're using it interactively. so like, if plain midish(1) is giving "i can fix him" energy, rmidish is the glow-up. 👑

💀 BUGS 💀

okay this one matters: the midish(1) executable has to be in the same directoy as rmidish. (that's "directoy", exactly as written, we do not touch the sacred text 🙈)

so like, keep them in the same folder. they're a package deal. they don't do long distance. 😭

this page came to you from the <strong>Debian</strong> world, dated <strong>August 22, 2005</strong> 🫶 and that's the whole manpage, bestie — short, sweet, and slaying. now go run it 💖✨🎀🌸🦋💅
