blend-update-usermenus(8)

💅 NAME 💅

blend-update-usermenus — the lil script that refreshes the user menus of every single Debian Pure Blend user out there. bestie, all of them. at once. 👑

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

blend-update-menus <Blend>

ok so real talk, the synopsis spells it blend-update-menus while the name up top says blend-update-usermenus — not me noticing, but that's literally what it says, so we're keeping it exactly like that. iykyk. 🙈

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea: this script is root-only. like, it can only be called by root, periodt. if you're not root, it's not happening, sorry babe. 💀

when you do run it, it calls update-menus(1) for every user who is registered for the Debian Pure Blend that you named as Blend. every. single. one. main character energy honestly. 🌈

but wait — if a user just wants to update their own personal menu? then they should call update-menus(1) directly. no need to go through this whole group-chat-blast situation, just do it yourself, slay. 🫶

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• Blend — one of the installed Blends, listed over in /etc/blends/. for example (if it's installed on your system): edu, gis, junior, med, or science. 🍓
