REFORM-CONFIG(8)
β¨ NAME β¨
okay so bestie, this is the reform-config</s> manual page β it lives in section 8 of the Unix manuals (the System Administration Utilities girlies π
) and its whole job is literally just selecting your keyboard and your timezone. that's it. that's the post. π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
reform-config [--help]
that's the entire vibe. one command, one optional flag. iconic, honestly. π¦
π DESCRIPTION π
so what does it do, you ask? it runs dpkg-reconfigure for two specific packages β keyboard-configuration and tzdata β and it does all of that under sudo. π
which means, fr fr, it's your one-stop little errand runner for:
- setting up your keyboard layout β¨οΈ (because bestie, we are NOT guessing where the
@symbol lives) - setting up your timezone π (so your clock stops gaslighting you)
no cap, that's the whole description. it's giving convenience wrapper and we're obsessed. β¨
π OPTIONS π
--helpβ displays this help and then exits. that's right, it shows you the help text and dips. main character exit. πͺπ¨
heads up bestie: this thing uses sudo under the hood, so it's gonna want some permissions. that's not a bug, that's just the price of being in charge. π
okay so that's the whole page, and I know it was short but honestly? short and slay. this was reform-config version 1.68, dated February 2025 β yes, 2025, she's fresh πΈ β and she's filed under REFORM-CONFIG(8). go configure something, bestie. i believe in you. π«Άπ
