✨ SLICEPRINT(1) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to sliceprint β€” the little cutie that takes your documents with obnoxiously long lines and goes βœ‚οΈ snip snip βœ‚οΈ on them. she's in section 1 of the manual, she's tiny, and she's so good at her one job πŸ’…


🌸 NAME 🌸

sliceprint β€” slice documents with long lines.

like, literally that's it. that's her whole personality. and we love her for it 🫢


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

sliceprint [-ofile] [enscript_options] [files]

yeah that's the whole thing. three little pieces. let's break the vibe check down:

  • -ofile β€” the output situation, attached right onto the -o like it's holding hands with it πŸ₯°
  • [enscript_options] β€” all your fave enscript options get to come along for the ride, she's just passing them through, no gatekeeping
  • [files] β€” the documents you wanna slice up, bestie

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so here's the tea β˜• β€” sliceprint is a wrapper around the --slice option of enscript(1). that's it. that's the whole girl. she doesn't reinvent anything, she just puts a cute little bow on it and handles the naming for you πŸŽ€

and the naming is the good part, ngl:

  • output slices get written to file.1, file.2, and so on ✨

numbered. orderly. iconic. every slice gets its own little numbered home, no cap πŸ’–


πŸ‘€ SEE ALSO πŸ‘€

  • enscript(1) β€” the main character she's wrapping, go say hi 🫢
