🐷 PIG(1) 🐷

okay so this is the PIG(1) page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation — and bestie, I’m obsessed. it’s giving “tiny utility, huge slay” 💅✨.

✨ NAME ✨

pig — eformatray inputway asway Igpay Atinlay. yes, that’s Pig Latin for “reformat input as Pig Latin,” and this page is fully committed to the bit 🐷💖.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

pig

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

The pig utility reads the standard input and writes it out to the standard output in Pig Latin (Igpay Atinlay). the way that it just transforms your text and dips 💅.

Useful for generating monthly reports. ngl, your monthly reports are about to be so much more iconic ✨.

💀 BUGS 💀

pig has no known bugs. it ate and left no crumbs 😭👑. not me being lowkey jealous of a bug-free icon.
