💖 Viz1090 — the manual page, but make it make sense 💖

okay bestie, so this is the manual page for viz1090, from the General Commands Manual section (that's section 1, iykyk). it's giving "short and sweet" and honestly? we love that for us.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

viz1090 [options]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. run the thing, optionally pass it some options, watch the planes. slay. 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like, this manual page documents the viz1090 command briefly. briefly!! as in, quick lil overview, not the whole saga.

viz1090 is a program that visualizes ADS-B data. that's the whole job description. it takes that ADS-B data and it makes it visible. main character energy, honestly. 👑

🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

here's a lil summary of the options, bestie. for a complete description, the original says to see the Info files — so if you need the deep lore, that's where it lives. 📚

  • -h, --help — shows you a summary of the options. your lil "help meee" button. 🫶
  • --fps — shows the current framerate. so you can obsess over the numbers in real time. 📈
  • --fullscreen — starts in fullscreen. no distractions, just vibes. 🖥️✨
  • --lat <latitude> — latitude in degrees. 🌍
  • --lon <longitude> — longitude in degrees. 🌎
  • --metric — use metric units. (for my metric girlies 🎀)
  • --port <port> — TCP Beast output listen port. default is 30005. 🔌
  • --server <IPv4/hosname> — TCP Beast output listen IPv4. default is 127.0.0.1. 🏠
  • --screensize <width> <height> — set frame buffer resolution. default is your screen resolution. 📐

ngl, the <IPv4/hosname> spelling in the original is exactly how it's written, so we're keeping it character for character. no cap. 🫡
