rmpc(1)
π NAME π
rmpc β bestie, that's the command, and this is its rmpc(1) page from the General Commands Manual. Main character energy only. β¨
π SYNOPSIS π
rmpc [-c|--config] [-t|--theme] [--clean] [-a|--address] [-p|--password]
[--partition] [--autocreate] [-h|--help] [subcommands]
That's the whole launch vibe: flags first, then a subcommand if you want one. π«Ά
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
The original page has literally no description text here. Not me making up lore β there's nothing to explain in this section, so we keep it mysterious. π
β¨ OPTIONS β¨
-c,--config<FILE>β no extra description is given in the original; it's just the config file option with that placeholder. π-t,--theme<FILE>β same deal: the original gives no extra deets, just the theme file option and its placeholder. π¦--cleanβ skips user config and starts with defaults. This one must be the only argument, periodt.-a,--address<ADDRESS>β overrides the address to connect to. Defaults to the value in the config file. π₯-p,--password<PASSWORD>β overrides the MPD password. π--partition<PARTITION>β the partition to connect to at startup. π--autocreateβ automatically creates the partition if it does not exist. Requires--partitionto be set, bestie; no partition, no autocreate. π-h,--helpβ prints help. π
