S6-FTRIG-NOTIFY(8)

okay so bestie, welcome to the S6-FTRIG-NOTIFY(8) page from the System Manager's Manual — yes, the header energy is right there, and this utility is giving event-notification realness. 💅✨

✨ NAME ✨

s6-ftrig-notify — send a series of events to an s6-fifodir(7). Literally that's the whole name, and it ate. 🎀

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

s6-ftrig-notify fifodir message

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so here's the tea: s6-ftrig-notify notifies all the current listeners in fifodir with all the characters in message. It's basically group-chat broadcasting for events — every character in message gets sent, and the current listeners are the ones hearing it. 🫶

🚨 bestie, important caveat: s6-ftrig-notify cannot be used to send the null character (event 0x00). Not happening. If you need to send the null character, use the C API: ftrigw_notify(). Refer to s6-ftrigw(7) for the details. 😭
