SCIM-IM-AG...SCIM-BRIDGE(1)
π¦ SCIM-IM-AGENT β literally the manual page, bestie (section 1, General Commands Manual) β¨
π NAME π
scim-im-agent β okay so, fun lore drop: scim-im-agent used to be called scim-bridge, and it's yet another IM client of SCIM. The im-module of scim-im-agent talks to scim via socket. That's the whole vibe. π«Ά
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
scim-im-agent; [-h --help] [-v--verbose] [-q--quiet] [-b--debugflags]
[-l--debuglevel] [-standalone--standalone] [-n--noexit]
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
So this manual page documents, briefly, the scim-im-agent command. Short and sweet, that's the assignment. π
Also real talk: this manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. Not me writing the docs nobody else would write ππ iconic behaviour honestly.
π OPTIONS π
The program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (-). A summary of options is included below. Buckle up bestie, here's the whole menu π
-h,--helpβ gives you this help list. That's it, that's the whole job. π-v,--verboseβ verbosely prints out the debug message into standard output. This option equals to--debuglevel=9 --debugflags=all. Maximum yapping mode, no cap. π₯-q,--quietβ makes it print no debug message at all. This option equals to--debuglevel=0 --debugflags=none. Shhh. Silence. Peace. π§-b,--debugflagsβ sets which category of debug output you need. Select one or more fromall,none,agent,messenger,imcontext, andscim. Pick your fighters π-l,--debuglevelβ sets how verbosely it should print debug output.--debuglevel=0equals to--quiet, and--debuglevel=9equals to--verbose. It's giving volume slider fr fr. π-standalone,--standaloneβ given this,scim-brige-agentwon't daemonize itself. (Yes, the spelling is exactly that in the original, I don't make the rules π)-n,--noexitβ given this,scim-brige-agentwon't exit when there is no client. It simply refuses to leave the party. π

Okay that's the whole page bestie, no bits skipped, every flag accounted for β
Sign-off: this was SCIM-IM-AG...SCIM-BRIDGE(1), living in the General Commands Manual corner of section 1 β no date on the footer, so consider this your timeless lil' bop. Stay debuggy. πβπ
