RXQUEUE(1)

✨ NAME ✨

rxqueue — the Regina Rexx Interpreter external queue filter 💖

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

rxqueue [-h, --help] [-D, --debug] [-t string, --text string] [queue]
[/fifo | /lifo | /clear | /pull | /queued]

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so bestie, rxqueue is the little utility that gets you into the Regina Rexx external queue daemon, aka rxstack. it's giving filter energy — it takes lines and drops them onto a queue either from stdin, or as one single line if you hand it the -t or --text switches. and when you want them back? lines can be pulled off the queue straight to stdout. no cap. 🫶

---

💅 OPTIONS 💅

• -h, --help — shows you a short help blurb. that's it, that's the whole vibe ✨
• -D, --debug — turns debugging on. yes queen, show us everything 👑
• -t string, --text string — takes the single line you specified in string and places it onto an optional queue, in whatever order you said with /fifo or /lifo 🎀
• queue — the name of the queue you wanna use. the format is queuename[@machine][:port]. if you don't specify one, the queue name used is SESSION on localhost, on the default port. lowkey a whole address in one little argument, iconic

---

🌈 ACTIONS 🌈

• /fifo — stacks the contents of stdin onto the queue in first in, first out order 🍓
• /lifo — stacks the contents of stdin onto the queue in last in, first out order 💜
• /clear — removes all lines currently stacked in the queue. bye bye everything 😭
• /pull — extracts the next line from the queue to stdout, and removes it from the queue. main character gets to leave the party first 💅
• /queued — returns the number of lines stacked on the queue to stdout. it's giving headcount 🔥

---

🌸 ENVIRONMENT 🌸

rxqueue uses the following environment variables if they're set. iykyk ✨

• RXDEBUG — enables debugging. same as specifying the -D or --debug option 💖
• RXSTACK — the port number on which rxstack listens. by default this is 5757 ⭐
• RXQUEUE — the name of the queue to be used if it wasn't specified by the client using rxqueue. by default this is SESSION 🦋
