🚀 Usage

To print a random tip, run:

cli-tips

# Output:

Note

cli-tips automatically detects the user's language and displays tips in that language. You can also set the language manually using the LANG environment variable.

Use Another Language

To display tips in a different language, use the --lang option:

cli-tips --lang=uk
# Output: Використовуйте 'uniq', щоб видалити дубльовані рядки з файлу

You can also use the LANG environment variable:

LANG=de cli-tips
# Output: Verwenden Sie 'uniq', um doppelte Zeilen aus einer Datei zu entfernen

Use the --about Flag

cli-tips --about=git
