💅 CMDLINE_MINI(1so)

hey bestie, welcome to CMDLINE_MINI, manual section 1so — literally the shortest page you will ever read in your life and honestly? iconic for that. it's just the shape of a mini command line. that's the whole thing. no cap 💖

✨ NAME ✨

cmdline_mini — the mini command-line layout, and that is the entire vibe 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

[ config ] serialport | | [host:]port

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so this is the entire grammar, and it fits on one line, which is honestly a flex 💅:

  • [ config ] — an optional config bit chilling right at the front, wrapped in square brackets so it's there if you want it and gone if you don't 🌸
  • serialport — literally a serial port, just like it says 🦋
  • | | — yes bestie, that's two bars with a space between them, and no, it's not a typo, that's exactly how the page writes it. copy it character for character 😭
  • [host:]port — a port, with an optional host: sitting in front of it, brackets and colon and all 🫶

and that's it. that's the page. no options, no environment variables, no files, no exit statuses, no signals, no errors, no examples, no bug notes, no author, no copyright, no license, no SEE ALSO — the whole thing is one line long and i'm genuinely obsessed with the confidence of it ngl 💀

fr fr, the page hands you exactly one line, so that one line is all you've got — don't go inventing extra flags and expecting this page to have your back 🙈

and that's a wrap, bestie 🧚 — end of CMDLINE_MINI(1so). it's so short there isn't even a version or date line to wave at you, so this cute lil sign-off is doing that job instead 💜
