YES(1)

📦 version 0.12.0, in arch rolling

💖 yes(1) — the manual page, but make it group chat 💖

okay bestie, so this is the manual for yes from the General Commands Manual — yes, the command is literally called yes, and no, it's not a motivational speaker. it's yes(1). that's the whole name. iconic behaviour fr fr. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

yes — keeps displaying a line with STRING over and over and over and over (or just y if you don't give it one) 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

yes [STRING]...

like. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🦋

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so what it does is: it repeatedly displays a line with STRING (or y) 💖

and when i say repeatedly i mean repeatedly — it does not stop, it does not get tired, it does not need a little snack break. it just keeps going. main character energy, no cap. ✨

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -h, --help — prints the help text. your little "what does this do again" bestie 🫶
  • -V, --version — prints the version. slay, now you know which one you're running 💅
  • [STRING] — the thing it prints over and over. and over. default: y 🌸 (so if you're like "bestie i don't have a string" — don't worry, it's got you, it'll just say y forever)

✨ VERSION ✨

v(uutils coreutils) 0.12.0 🔥

okay that's the whole page, you ate that 💜 go forth and yes responsibly (or don't, honestly, that's between you and your terminal) 🧚
