Utility
Cleans and sorts a descript.ion file, removing entries that no longer exist with a couple of other options too..
Check out the source code on GitHub!
USAGE:
cldesc.exe [options] [file]
--vf Remove entries where the entry does not exist.*
--sf Save a backup copy of the `descript.ion` file.*
--oc Output to the console instead of to the source file. This only
works when a <file> is specified.
* These items can be set as environment variables using:
> set cldescrip_<arg>=true|false
[file] Specify the file to clean up. If a file is not specified, assumes
`descript.ion` in the current directory.
A file (or content) can be piped to `cldesc` via stdin. In such
cases the output will always be sent to stdout.
EXAMPLES:
Sort the `descript.ion` file in the current directory, updating the file's
contents.
> cldesc.exe
Sort `file.txt` and output the results to the console.
> type file.txt |cldesc
