🌸 uefifind — the manual, but make it cute 🌸

okay so bestie, welcome to uefifind — that's the uefifind(1) page from the General Commands Manual, and yes we're reading it together, no skipping 💅

✨ NAME ✨

uefifind — UEFI image file replacement utility. that's the whole vibe. it finds stuff in UEFI images and helps you swap files in them 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

two whole ways to call it, pick your fighter:

uefifind imagefile {header|body|all} {list|count} pattern

uefifind imagefile file patternsfile

like... either you're searching for a pattern in a chosen region, or you're feeding it a patternsfile. both valid. both iconic. 🔥

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so UEFITool — the parent program, the main character 👑 — is a cross-platform C++/Qt program for parsing, extracting and modifying UEFI firmware images. it's giving very "I do it all" energy, and honestly? deserved.

it supports parsing of full BIOS images starting with the flash descriptor, and also any binary files containing UEFI volumes. so like, whatever shape your firmware situation is in, it's probably fine 🦋

and uefifind specifically? it uses ffsParser to find image elements containing a specified pattern. that's the whole job. that's the whole assignment. and it ate. 💖

ngl the manpage does not tell us what happens after it finds them, so we're not gonna guess — we just report fr fr 🙈
