💖 SYNFIG(1) — User Commands 💖

okay bestie, welcome to SYNFIG(1), the manual page that lives in the User Commands section of your man pages ✨ it's short, it's sweet, it's giving "tiny tool, big main character energy" and honestly? we're obsessed 🫶

🎀 NAME 🎀

synfig-config — get information about the installed version of synfig 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

yeah that's it. one command, a whole pile of options, no drama (except the good kind) 🌸

# 🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so basically `synfig-config` is your little info desk 📋 you ask it stuff, it tells you stuff about the synfig that's installed on your machine. that's the whole vibe. let's break it down by category, bestie 💜

## 💫 Generic options 💫

- **`--version`** — prints the installed version of synfig 🎀 like, which synfig do you even have?? this tells you. iconic.
- **`--help`** — shows you this help text and then dips out 👋 that's it, that's the whole job.

## 🔥 Compilation support options 🔥

- **`--cflags`** — prints the pre-processor and compiler flags 🛠️ the stuff your build needs to know.
- **`--libs`** — prints library linking information 🔗 the linker's little love letter.

> ngl, these two are the ones you actually pipe into your build system. periodt. 💅

## 🦋 Install directories 🦋

these ones are all about *where things live* on your system 🏠✨ so many directories, so little time:

- **`--prefix`**
- **`--exec-prefix`**
- **`--bindir`**
- **`--libexecdir`**
- **`--datadir`**
- **`--sysconfdir`**
- **`--sharedstatedir`**
- **`--localstatedir`**
- **`--libdir`**
- **`--infodir`**
- **`--mandir`**
- **`--includedir`**

look at that lineup 😭 it's giving "twelve options walked into a bar and every single one of them is a directory" 🍓 no cap.
