Fsdb::F...comments(3)

🎀 NAME 🎀

okay bestie, welcome to Fsdb::F...comments(3) — the perl manpage for dbfilestripcomments. The class-function bits call it Fsdb::Filter::dbfilestripcomments, and it’s literally a little tool that removes comments from a fsdb file. that’s the whole vibe. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

dbfilestripcomments [-h]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So dbfilestripcomments removes any comments in a file, including the header. no cap. This makes the file unreadable by other Fsdb utilities, but perhaps more readable by humans. It’s giving “for human eyes only” energy. 👀

With the -h option, leave the header. simple as that. 🫶

🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

• -h or --header — retain the header. that’s the special little guy. 🎀

This module also supports the standard fsdb options:

• -d — enable debugging output. 🐛
• -i or --input _InputSource_ — read from _InputSource_, typically a file name, or "-" for standard input, or (if in Perl) a IO::Handle, Fsdb::IO or Fsdb::BoundedQueue objects. 💖
• -o or --output _OutputDestination_ — write to _OutputDestination_, typically a file name, or "-" for standard output, or (if in Perl) a IO::Handle, Fsdb::IO or Fsdb::BoundedQueue objects. ✨
• --autorun or --noautorun — by default, programs process automatically, but Fsdb::Filter objects in Perl do not run until you invoke the run() method. The "--(no)autorun" option controls that behavior within Perl. 🔥
• --help — show help. 🫶
• --man — show full manual. 📖
