WLAND(8)

📦 version 0.2.9, in ubuntu jammy

💖 WLAND(8) — the linux-wlan-ng daemon 💖

okay bestie, sit down, we're reading a man page from the System Manager's Manual, section 8, and her name is wland. she's serving absolutely nothing right now but we still stan the documentation. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

wland — linux-wlan-ng daemon

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

wland [-V|-v] [-d wlandpath] [-u]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so wland is a daemon, right? her whole job is receiving and handling events from 802.11 services and from MAC-specific linux-wlan-ng drivers. that's the assignment. that's the whole personality.

and then… the plot twist 😭 she is not currently used. she's the most qualified girl in the room and she's benched. no cap.

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -V — yeah she's listed, no description attached, she's just there. mysterious. iconic behavior honestly.
  • -v — display the version number. little v, big info. ✨
  • -d wlandpath — specify the directory to run in. tell her where to live bestie.
  • -u — do not daemonize; run in the foreground instead. so instead of slipping into the background like a ghost, she stays right there with you, eyes on you, main character energy. 👑

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

  • /usr/share/doc/linux-wlan-ng/README
  • /usr/share/doc/linux-wlan-ng/README.Debian

(yes, both of them, go read your homework 🍓)
