# drtl
Yet another [tldr](https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr) client. Written mostly as an exercise to try Zig. The client doesn't
maintain a local database of tldr pages but rather embeds all of them in the binary.

## Installation
```
# On Arch Linux
paru -Sy drtl-bin
```
You can also just use the [prebuilt binaries](https://github.com/jiripospisil/drtl/releases) or build it yourself.
## Usage
```
Usage: drtl
Prints tldr page for the given name.
Pages are split into several categories (android, common, linux, osx, sunos, and windows). If
you want a page for a specific category, use "category/name".
Options:
-h, --help print this help
-v, --version print version
-l, --list list all pages
```
## Building from Source
Tested with [Zig](https://ziglang.org/) `0.11.0-dev.3726+8fcc28d30`.
```
./update_pages.bash # Optionally update tldr pages
zig build
```
