✨ SEEWBMP(1) ✨

okay bestie, so this is seewbmp from the Kannel Project β€” it lives in section 1 of the manual (that's the user commands girlies πŸ’…) and it is literally here to turn your wireless bitmap files into text. yes, actual text. on your terminal. iconic behavior fr fr πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

seewbmp β€” convert a WBMP wireless bitmap into a textual format πŸ¦‹


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

seewbmp [inputfile...]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. you can hand it zero, one, or a whole stack of input files, no cap πŸ‘‘


πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so here's the tea, bestie πŸ“: seewbmp reads one or more wireless bitmap images β€” that's WBMP files, iykyk β€” and prints them right out to standard output in a textual format.

and every single pixel? it shows up as either a space or an asterisk. that's it. that's the whole art direction. ✨*✨ vs ✨. main character energy honestly.

so like, a cute little image comes in, a grid of spaces and stars comes out, and you can actually see your bitmap with your own two eyeballs without opening any fancy image viewer. slay πŸ’…

ngl this is the kind of tool that just works and asks for nothing in return. lowkey obsessed 🫢
