NAME
meta - A simple front-end to Acme::MetaSyntactic
SYNOPSIS
meta [ --whitespace|ws ] [ --remote ] [ --help ] [ --version ] theme [ count ]
DESCRIPTION
meta is a simple front-end to Acme::MetaSyntactic.
A few examples should make it easy to understand what it does and how it works:
$ meta
baz
$ meta batman
powie
$ meta donmartin 3
kloong
thoof_foing
weeooweeeoooo
$ meta -ws browser 4
arachne netscape voyager w3m
In short, the default theme is foo
, the default count is 1, the default separator is $/
, but you can replace it by whitespace with --ws.
