✨ XPAD ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the xpad manual page — it's from the General Commands Manual section (that's the 1 in XPAD(1), iykyk) 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

xpad — a sticky notes application for GTK+ 3.0 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

xpad [OPTIONS]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

It's giving... a sticky notes application. For GTK+ 3.0. That's literally the whole vibe. Notes. Sticky ones. On your screen. Obsessed. 😌

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• -v, --version — shows you the version info, periodt. 📋
• -?, --help — prints the usage info so you know what's up. 🫶
• -h, --hide — hides all your existing pads when it starts up. All of them, no cap. So unless the tray icon is chillin' there or you also pass --new, xpad will exit immediately — like, gone, bye. 💀
• -s, --show — shows your existing pads on startup. main character energy, they're back on screen. 👑
• -t, --toggle — flips each of the existing pads between showing and hiding on startup. every pad gets its own little vibe check. 🔄
• -n, --new — opens a brand new pad. fresh start, slay. ✨
• -N, --no-new — stops xpad from making a new pad on startup. and like, lowkey important: a new pad would get created if xpad is already running and you run it again, or if there are no old pads to load. so this flag is the "not me, not today" of pad creation. 🙈
• -f, --new-from-file=FILE — makes a new pad, and the pad's contents come from a file. yes, that file. 📁
• -q, --quit — closes every open pad and terminates all the xpad processes. it's over bestie, log off. 💅
