tetrinetx(6)

โœจ tetrinetx(6) โœจ โ€” the Games Manual page, but make it cute

okay bestie, so this is tetrinetx from the Games Manual (section 6, we're so fancy). Sit down, grab a snack, we're learning about a whole Tetris-adjacent server situation. ๐ŸŽ€


๐ŸŒธ NAME ๐ŸŒธ

tetrinetx โ€” a TetriNET server. that's it, that's the whole name section, but it's iconic honestly ๐Ÿ‘‘


๐Ÿฆ‹ SYNOPSIS ๐Ÿฆ‹

tetrinetx

no flags, no args, no drama. just vibes and the program name. periodt. ๐Ÿ’…


๐Ÿ’– DESCRIPTION ๐Ÿ’–

so this manual page is here to document the tetrinetx command briefly. like, briefly briefly. and here's the tea: this page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program literally does not have a manual page. so we made one. you're welcome. ๐Ÿซถ

what does tetrinetx actually do? it provides a server for hosting Tetrinet games. ๐ŸŽฎ

and what is Tetrinet, you ask? it's a variant of Tetris that you play over the internet. yes, competitive block-dropping with your internet friends. main character energy fr fr.

here's the important number, don't forget it: up to six people may simultaneously connect to a server to participate in a game. six. that's the whole squad. ๐ŸŒˆ


๐ŸŽ€ OPTIONS ๐ŸŽ€

this program does not allow any option.

that's right. zero. none. not a single flag. it's giving minimalist, it's giving "I don't need options, I am the option." you just run it. slay. ๐Ÿ’€โœจ


๐Ÿ’œ AUTHOR ๐Ÿ’œ

this manual page was written by Julien Danjou <acid@debian.org>, for the Debian project โ€” but bestie, it may be used by others too. sharing is caring, no gatekeeping here. ๐Ÿ”ฅ


heads up: that's genuinely every single thing this manpage contains. no hidden flags, no secret environment variables, no exit statuses. just a server, a game, and six friends max. iykyk. ๐Ÿ“

and that's a wrap on the tetrinetx(6) page from the Games Manual! ๐Ÿ’… recorded way back in September 2004 and still living in our hearts (and our manpage databases). bye bestie, go drop some blocks ๐Ÿงšโ€โ™€๏ธโญ
