💖 XNVME_FILE(1) — the xNVMe manual, bestie edition 💖

okay so. this is xnvme_file, part of the xNVMe family, and it's your little gateway drug to file stuff on the command line. it's giving ✨multi-tool✨ energy. let's get into it.

🌸 NAME 🌸

xnvme_file — ngl the manual is kinda shy about this one, it literally just says "No short description". so like. it's the file command. that's the vibe. 🫶

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

xnvme_file <command> [<args>]

that's it. that's the whole shape of it. you pick a <command>, you hand it some <args>, you go live your life. 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so the official description is... "No long description". 😭 iconic of it honestly. the actual lore lives in each subcommand's own man page, so go read those (more on that below, i got you).

👑 COMMANDS 👑

here's the whole roster, no skips, no cuts, every single one:

  • xnvme_file-write-read(1) — writes and reads a file. the classic. the main character. 🔥
  • xnvme_file-dump-sync(1) — writes a buffer of data-nbytes to file. synchronous, so it does the thing and waits, like a good friend. 🫶
  • xnvme_file-dump-sync-iovec(1) — also writes a buffer of data-nbytes to file, but with iovec energy. ✨
  • xnvme_file-dump-async(1) — writes a buffer of data-nbytes to file --data-output. asynchronous, so it's out here multitasking. 💅
  • xnvme_file-dump-async-iovec(1) — writes a buffer of data-nbytes to file --data-output, and yes bestie, iovec again. 🦋
  • xnvme_file-load-sync(1) — reads the entire file into memory. the whole thing. no crumbs. 😤
  • xnvme_file-load-async(1) — reads the entire file into memory, but make it async. 🌈
  • xnvme_file-copy-sync(1) — copies file --data-input to --data--output. 💖
  • xnvme_file-copy-async(1) — copies a file. async edition. slay. ⭐

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • --help — prints the synopsis and exits. the "hey bestie what is this" button. use it, love it. 🎀

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

want the tea on any specific <command>? read its man page, or just poke the command-line --help:

$ xnvme_file <command> --help

that's the move. lowkey the fastest way to figure out what you're doing. 😌
