## Why
Terminal user interfaces suck. Because `reddio` is command-line only, it's way more flexible than a TUI and integrates much better with other command-line utilities.
## Dependencies
* A POSIX compliant shell as `/bin/sh`
* `coreutils` (GNU, busybox or others should work)
* `cURL`
* `jq`
* `netcat` optional (for authentication)
## Installation
### System-wide installation into /usr/local
```shell
make install
```
### Home directory installation into $HOME/.local
```shell
make PREFIX="$HOME/.local" install
PATH=$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH
```
## Usage
```
reddio [-chqvV] [ []]
-c Use instead of the default config
-s Use instead of the default
-q Quiet
-v Verbose mode
-V Print version information and exit
-h Print this help and exit
Commands:
comment delete edit login logout message print submit
(un)follow (un)hide (un)marknsfw (un)read (un)save
(un)spoiler (un)subscribe upvote downvote unvote.
A unique part, of the beginning of the command, is also valid. For
example, 'p' for print or 'logi' for login.
```
All sub-commands also have a `-h` option for printing usage information.
## Examples
Print the two hottest submissions of r/commandline
```shell
$ reddio print -l 2 r/commandline
