FREEDINK(6)

๐Ÿ’– FREEDINK โ€” the game, but make it editor โœจ

okay bestie, listen up, because this one is a whole vibe. we're talking about FreeDink, a manual page from section 6 (that's the Games section, iykyk ๐ŸŽฎ), and specifically we're talking about the editor side of it โ€” an adventure and role-playing game situation. yes, and an editor. it's giving multitasking main character energy. ๐Ÿ’…


๐ŸŒธ SYNOPSIS ๐ŸŒธ

freedinkedit [OPTIONS]...

that's it, that's the whole entry ritual. you run freedinkedit, you hand it some options, and you're off. ๐Ÿฆ‹


โœจ DESCRIPTION โœจ

so what does it actually do? you use it to edit the Dink Smallwood game, or to edit one of its D-Mods. that's the whole thing. lowkey iconic, highkey useful. ๐Ÿ’–

here's the full rundown of everything you can throw at it, no skips, no cuts, every single flag accounted for:

  • -h, --help โ€” shows you the help screen. your little map when you're lost. ๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ
  • -v, --version โ€” tells you the version. the "who even am I" button.
  • -g, --game <dir> โ€” point it at a specific DMod directory. <dir> is where your mod lives. ๐Ÿ 
  • -r, --refdir <dir> โ€” sets the base directory for dink/graphics, D-Mods, and all that whole ecosystem. <dir> is the root of everything.
  • -d, --debug โ€” explains what's being done while it's being done. commentary mode, basically. ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ
  • -i, --noini โ€” do not attempt to write dinksmallwood.ini. hands off the ini, bestie. ๐Ÿ™ˆ
  • -j, --nojoy โ€” do not attempt to use the joystick. sorry gamers, no stick today. ๐Ÿ•น๏ธ
  • -s, --nosound โ€” do not play sound. silent mode. ๐Ÿคซ
  • -t, --truecolor โ€” allows more colours, for those recent D-Mod graphics that are serving looks. ๐ŸŒˆ
  • -w, --window โ€” use windowed mode instead of screen mode. small and cozy instead of full send. ๐ŸชŸ
  • -7, --v1.07 โ€” enables v1.07 compatibility mode. yes, the flag is literally a 7. slay. ๐Ÿ‘‘
  • -S, --software-rendering โ€” do not use OpenGL. software rendering only, no GPU glamour. ๐Ÿ’€
