RULEX(1)

💖 NAME 💖

ok so bestie, meet rulex — a simple Russian text markup utility that makes your pronunciation actually good. it's giving glow-up for your text. ✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

rulex <dictionary> [<logfile>]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so here's the vibe: rulex reads text from standard input, marks it up according to the dictionary you tell it to use, and writes the result to standard output. lowkey iconic behavior. 💅

it's generally intended to be used in conjunction with the ru_tts speech synthesizer, or for pronunciation database testing. iykyk. 🦋

the first command line argument specifies the path to the pronunciation database. it is mandatory — no dictionary, no slay, periodt. 💀

the second argument is optional. it specifies the file where all the unknown words will get collected. like a little lost-and-found for words your dictionary didn't recognize. 🥺
