✨ SWEEP(1) ✨

okay bestie, so this is the manual page for Sweep — she's a sound wave editor, and she's been doing this since before u were born fr fr 💖 (manual page number 1, version 0.9.3, iykyk)

🎀 NAME 🎀

Sweep — a sound wave editor 🎧✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

no like literally this is the whole vibe in one block:

sweep [-h] [--help] [-v] [--version] [--display display]
      [--ignore-failed-lock] [filename]...

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Sweep is a sound wave editor. that's it. that's the description. the manpage said it once and honestly? main character energy. short, sweet, no notes 💅

👑 OPTIONS 👑

here's everything Sweep will accept from u at the command line, bestie. all of it. every single one 🫶

  • -h, --help — shows u a list of all the commandline options. like a menu but for flags. obsessed.
  • -v, --version — prints out the version info. who is she? what era is she in? find out here ⭐
  • --ignore-failed-lock — keeps going even when the attempt to lock the preferences file fails. for when the user's home directory lives on an NFS file system. > note: possibly unsafe 🙈 (the original said it, not me!!)
  • --display display — use the designated X display. u pick the display, she uses it. as simple as that 🌈

🧚 ENVIRONMENT 🧚

the vibes she reads from ur environment, no cap:

  • DISPLAY — to get the default host and display number.
  • XENVIRONMENT — to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global resources stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
