retawq Documentation
Command-Line Options
- --colors=off: don't use colors
- --colors=reverse: use black-on-white colors
- --download=URL: download the content from the given URL,
write it to standard output as it is received and quit when done; cf. the keyboard command "ctrl-d" for more information. Redirection
of the output to a file or to another program and errors are handled as
described for the "--dump" option below.
- --dump=URL: receive the document from the given URL
completely, then "dump" it to standard output and quit; cf. the keyboard command "d". To store the output in a file, apply
the shell redirection operator ">" as usual, e.g. "retawq
--dump=about:retawq >ABOUT". To redirect the output to another program,
apply the shell pipeline operator "|" as usual, e.g. "retawq
--dump=about:retawq | wc --lines". If an error occurs, a "fatal error" message
will be printed to standard error (so it's redirectable with the shell operator
"2>"), and the program will exit with a non-zero exitcode. - More detailed
control over the output formatting will be possible in a later version with a
"dumpstyle" option.
- --help: print a short help text and quit
- --resume-session: resume a session from
the default session file (usually something like
"/home/your_home/.retawq/session") in curses-like runmode
- --resume-session=filename: resume a session from the given file in curses-like runmode
- --retawqdir=path: the path to your retawq run-time configuration directory; by default, this
directory is something like "/home/your_home/.retawq/", depending on the
environment variable "HOME"; this option allows you to use several profiles
easily.
- --version, -v: print a short version information and
quit
You can also specify the URLs of one or two documents which will then be
shown (in curses-like runmode).
