✨ who — bestie edition ✨

okay so the manual name is who and it lives in section 1 of the General Commands Manual 💖 — that's the "user commands" section, the one where all the stuff you type yourself hangs out. now let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

who — print info about the girlies (and everyone else) who are currently logged in 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

who [-a|--all] [-b|--boot] [-d|--dead] [-H|--heading] [-l|--login]
[--lookup] [-m ] [-p|--process] [-q|--count] [-r|--runlevel]
[-s|--short] [-t|--time] [-u|--users] [-T|--mesg] [-h|--help]
[-V|--version] [FILE]

not the -m up there having a whole extra space after it. iconic. don't touch it. 🙈

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

Print information about users who are currently logged in. that's it, that's the vibe — who's on the system rn, no cap 🌈

---

• -b, --boot — time of the last system boot 🌱
• -d, --dead — print dead processes 💀 (yes really)
• -H, --heading — print a line of column headings so you know what you're looking at 👑
• -l, --login — print system login processes

• -q, --count — all login names and the number of users logged on 🔢
• -r, --runlevel — print the current runlevel ⭐

• -T, --mesg — add the user's message status as +, - or ? 💬
