🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

xwrited [-q | --quit] [-V | --version]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

The xwrited utility displays write(1) and wall(1) messages as desktop notifications. it's giving personal assistant but make it terminal 🫶

heads up tho: you need a notification daemon running that's compliant to the freedesktop.org Desktop Notification Specification draft, otherwise there's literally nowhere for the notifications to show up. no daemon, no vibes. 😭

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

The following options are supported:

  • -q, --quit — Quit the running instance of xwrited. like, she's done, she's leaving, bye 💅
  • -V, --version — Print the version number and exit. one line, then she's out the door 👑

⭐ EXIT STATUS ⭐

The following exit values are returned:

  • 0 — Command successfully executed. slay. ✅
  • > 0 — An error has occured. 🫠 (not the vibe, but it happens)

💜 NOTES 💜

xwrited assumes that messages are encoded in UTF-8, because there is genuinely no way for her to determine the character set encoding of the received data. so like, that's the deal, that's the assumption, periodt 💀

and that's the whole page bestie!! 🎀 this little icon was living her best life as xwrited version 3, dated 29 June, 2018, in the User Commands section of the manual 🦋✨ take care of her, she's doing her best 💖
