XDD(1)

📦 version 0.7.5, in alpine 3.24, epel 9, fedora 43, fedora 44

💖 XDD 💖

okay bestie, so this is the man page for xdd, and it's part of the xNVMe manual set. Yes, this one's a little bare — the page itself literally says it has no short description, no long description, and it's just vibing there being a little mysterious 🫶. But that's fine, because xdd is a command dispatcher: you don't really hang out with xdd directly, you go meet its friends (the subcommands). Let's get into it. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

xdd — No short description

like, none. zero. the void. and honestly? iconic behaviour. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

xdd <command> [<args>]

that's the whole shape of it: you give xdd a <command>, and then you hand that command some <args>. simple as. 🌈

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

No long description

fr fr, that's it. no long description to be found. the real lore lives in the individual command man pages and in --help. iykyk 😭

✨ COMMANDS ✨

these are the subcommands — the actual main characters 👑

  • xdd-sync(1) — Copy --data-nbytes from --data-input to --data--output
  • xdd-async(1) — Copy --data-nbytes from --data-input to --data--output
heads up bestie: yes, those two are word-for-word identical in this page, and yes, the destination option is written --data--output with two dashes in the middle. i am copying it exactly, not "fixing" it, no cap. 🫶

both of them do the copy thing — one of them is the sync flavour, one is the async flavour, and that's the whole difference as far as this page is concerned. if you wanna know more, go read xdd-sync(1) and xdd-async(1). 💖

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • --help — Print the synopsis and exit ✨ (a little escape hatch, a little "actually, explain yourself" button)

🔥 EXAMPLES 🔥

want the tea? read the man page for each <command>, or just go straight to the command-line --help:

$ xdd <command> --help

that's the move. go straight to the source. 👑

so yeah, that's xdd — a tiny little gateway page that points you at its way more talkative subcommands. short page, big energy. 🌸

and that's a wrap! this beauty is from the xNVMe manual, dated 09 September 2024, sitting pretty in section XDD(1). mwah 💋 ✨
