SMTUBE(1)
π SMTube β the manual page, but make it a vibe π
okay bestie, gather round, because this is SMTUBE(1), from the General Commands Manual section, and honestly? it's a little icon. β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
SMTube β a YouTube videos browser π¦
like. that's it. that's the whole name section. short, sweet, slayed. π
π SYNOPSIS π
smtube
no flags. no arguments. no weird little subcommands to memorise. you just type it and go, and that's the whole point. π
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
so here's the tea, bestie. π
SMTube is a stand-alone graphical application β meaning it does NOT need a terminal, it does NOT need you to be a shell wizard, it just opens up with a window and vibes. πͺβ¨
and what does it let you do? two iconic things:
- search for YouTube videos π
- download YouTube videos β¬οΈ
periodt. that's the mission. π
now here's the part that's lowkey the best bit β even though it's part of the SMPlayer project, it does NOT gatekeep. π«Ά SMTube can be used with any multimedia player, like:
mpvMPlayerVLCTotemDragon Player
so whatever your player of choice is, SMTube is like "bet, I got you." no forced loyalty, no main-character-only energy. it's giving β¨*generous*β¨. π
ngl, the "any multimedia player" thing is the whole flex here. SMTube finds and grabs the video, your fave player plays it. everybody eats. ππ₯
π«Ά a lil sign-off π«Ά
that's the entire page, bestie β no hidden sections, no secret flags, nothing lurking in the dark. π
this one's dated June 20 2018, so shoutout to the era that gave us this cutie. ππ
go search something. go download something. go be the main character of your own watchlist. ππ¦β¨
