πŸŽ€ XSYSTEM35(6) πŸŽ€

okay bestie, sit DOWN, because this is the manual page for xsystem35 straight out of the xsystem35 User Manual, section 6 of your friendly neighbourhood man pages. It's short, it's sweet, and it runs your extremely niche Japanese PC games from 1996. Let's go πŸ’…

✨ NAME ✨

xsystem35 β€” program to play System 3.5 games

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

xsystem35 [OPTIONS]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

This manual page documents briefly the xsystem35 command. Like, briefly-briefly. It's giving "just the essentials, bestie."

Real talk though: this manpage was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. So somebody had to step up and do the Lord's work, and here we are 🫢
