💖 smd-applet(1) — the Sync Mail Dir (smd) docs, but make it cute 💖

okay bestie, sit down, we're talking about smd-applet, and no this is not the manual page your boomer sysadmin wrote, it's the glow-up version ✨

✨ NAME ✨

smd-applet — the graphical interface for smd-pull 🎀

like, it's the pretty face. the vibe. the icon in your tray. periodt.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

smd-applet [-vl]

that's it. that's the whole summoning ritual. two letters max. slay 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so smd-applet is an applet for the GNOME notification area 👑 and what it does is it runs smd-loop for you, lowkey in the background, living its best life.

and then — the main character moment — when critical events happen, it notifies the user 🔔. and here's the part that ate: instead of making you open a terminal like some kind of medieval peasant, it lets you run the suggested commands by clicking on buttons 🖱️✨

buttons > typing. no cap. fr fr.

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -v, --verbose — crank up the program verbosity. debugging only, bestie — it's not a personality trait, it's a diagnostic tool 🙈
  • -l, --smd-loop=command — override the smd-loop command name. also debugging only. do not make this your whole aesthetic. 💀
🫶 gentle reminder that both of these are labeled debugging only in the original, so keep them for when you're actually poking at things, not for everyday use.
