💖 XCADABRA 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because we're talking about xcadabra — the manual page, the legend, the icon. it's from section 1 of the manual (that's the "user commands" section, iykyk) 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

xcadabra — gtk front-end for cadabra 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

xcadabra

that's it. that's the whole thing. no flags, no args, no drama. she just is. 🦋

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so Xcadabra is a graphical front-end for the computer algebra system cadabra. that's the whole vibe: cadabra does the scary math, Xcadabra gives it a cute lil gtk face so you don't have to stare at a bare terminal like it's 1974. ✨
