πŸ’– ScottFree(6) πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to the Games Manual section of the docs β€” this is the whole entire vibe on scottfree, and it's lowkey iconic. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

scottfree β€” the interpreter for Scott Adams database game files πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

scottfree [-d] [-i] [-y] [-s] [-t] [databasename] [save-file]

πŸ’… DESCRIPTION πŸ’…

okay so real talk β€” this manual page is here to document scottfree briefly. Like, the short version. ✨

and the reason this page even exists? bestie, it was written for the Debian distribution, because the original program literally does not have a manual page. not one. it has documentation in text format instead β€” see below, iykyk. 😭

so what does scottfree actually do? it's a program that reads and executes TRS80 format Scott Adams datafiles. that's the whole assignment. no cap. πŸ‘‘


πŸ”₯ OPTIONS πŸ”₯

  • -d β€” debugging info on load. spill the tea about what's loading, fr fr 🫢
  • -i β€” generate "I am"-style messages. this one is the default, so if you don't say anything, this is what you get πŸ’–
  • -y β€” generate "You are"-style messages. switch it up, main character energy 🌈
  • -s β€” generate authentic Scott Adams driver light messages rather than other driver style ones. the real deal, periodt ✨
  • -t β€” generate TRS80 style display. retro display vibes, obsessed πŸ‘‘
