VPCD-CONFIG(1)

πŸ’– VPCD-CONFIG(1) β€” the manual page bestie πŸ’–

okay so this is the man page for vpcd-config, living in section 1 of your manual (you know, the "user commands" section, the one you actually read πŸ‘‘). It's short. It's sweet. It does one job. And honestly? It ate.


✨ NAME ✨

vpcd-config β€” dump local VPCD config πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

vpcd-config

no flags, no args, no drama. just vibes.


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so here's the tea: vpcd-config tries to guess the local IP address and then outputs vpcd's configuration. that's it, that's the whole thing, and it's iconic for it.

because of that guessy IP situation, you're gonna wanna pick vpicc's options to match what it spat out β€” specifically --hostname and --port. like, take the hint, bestie, the config is literally telling you what to do 🫢

and wait, there's more: vpcd-config also prints a QR code for configuration of the Remote Smart Card Reader πŸŽ€βœ¨ so you can just point your phone at the terminal like it's 2019 and you're adding someone on snap. it's giving convenience. it's giving main character energy.

lowkey a reminder tho: it tries to guess the local IP. that's the man page's own wording, not mine. don't come for me if the guess is a little off πŸ™ˆ

πŸ’œ OPTIONS πŸ’œ

  • none. β€” literally zero. not one. no flags, no -h, no --help, nothing. the way that this program simply does not have options? obsessed. periodt. πŸ’€
