VIEW-OS(1)
β¨ VIEWNAME β¨
okay bestie so this is viewname from section 1 of the General Commands Manual β a total staple of the View-OS era, and honestly? she's giving main character energy π
NAME
viewname β set set viewname π
(yes, she says "set set". iconic. we don't edit the queen. π)
SYNOPSIS
viewname [-p] [-q] [ newname ]
DESCRIPTION
so like, this command does one of two things and she's very clear about which: either she sets the current view name, or she displays it. no in-between, no drama. π¦
- Call her with no argument at all and she just shows you the current view. vibe check complete. β¨
- Call her with one argument and she sets the view name. that's it, that's the whole thing. π
OPTIONS
-pβ creates a string for the shell "prompt" message π when a specific name hasn't been set, the program shows a string made up of the hostname, the server id and the view id. so even when you're nameless, you're never nothing, bestie π«Ά-qβ quiet mode π the program does not display any error. she's simply not going to tell you. silence. peace. no cap π€«
