SIGIL(1)

✨ SIGIL(1) — General Commands Manual ✨

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, because we're talking about sigil 💖 — and yeah, it's a section 1 command, so it's a real actual program you run in your terminal, no cap.

🌸 NAME 🌸

sigil — multi-platform ebook editor 🫶

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

sigil

literally that's it. no flags, no args, no drama. you just type it and go. iconic behaviour honestly 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so sigil is a multi-platform ebook editor — as in, it runs on more than one platform, it's not out here picking favourites ✨

and what does it edit? books in ePub format. that's the whole assignment. it's designed to edit ePub books, and it does that, and it slays while doing it 💀💖

no options are listed on this page, bestie — that's not me skipping a section, that's genuinely the whole page. iykyk 🌈

💜 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES 💜

Sigil recognises the following environment variables, and yes, we're going through them properly because your girl does not skip content 🧚

• SIGIL_DICTIONARIES — this one tells Sigil where your hunspell dictionaries live 🍓 like, the location of them. On Debian it points to /usr/share/hunspell so you get the system installed dictionaries, the ones provided by hunspell-dictionary. lowkey elegant, highkey convenient 💅

👑 AUTHOR 👑

• Sigil was written by several authors. yes, a whole squad. main character energy, but make it collaborative 🌟
• This manual page was written by Norbert Preining and Mattia Rizzolo for the Debian project — and, cute detail, it may be used by others too 💖

okay that's the whole vibe check, we ate and left no crumbs 🎀 the page header said SIGIL(1) and General Commands Manual, and the footer said SIGIL(1) again with the date October 15, 2015 — so happy very belated manual-page birthday bestie, go edit an ePub, mwah 💅✨🦋
