Usage

  • tldr <command>

Configuration

You can configure the behaviour and output of the tldr client by setting environment variables. For example, in the .bashrc file:

export TLDR_COLOR_BLANK="white"
export TLDR_COLOR_NAME="cyan"
export TLDR_COLOR_DESCRIPTION="white"
export TLDR_COLOR_EXAMPLE="green"
export TLDR_COLOR_COMMAND="red"
export TLDR_COLOR_PARAMETER="white"
export TLDR_CACHE_ENABLED=1
export TLDR_CACHE_MAX_AGE=720

Cache

  • TLDR_CACHE_ENABLED (default is 1):

    • If set to 1, the client will first try to load from cache, and fall back to fetching from the internet if the cache doesn’t exist or is too old.

    • If set to 0, the client will fetch from the internet, and fall back to the cache if the page cannot be fetched from the internet.

  • TLDR_CACHE_MAX_AGE (default is 24): maximum age of the cache in hours to be considered as valid when TLDR_CACHE_ENABLED is set to 1.

Colors

Values of the TLDR_COLOR_x variables may consist of three parts: * Font color, required: blue, green, yellow, cyan, magenta, white, grey, red * Background color: on_blue, on_cyan, on_magenta, on_white, on_grey, on_yellow, on_red, on_green * Additional effects, which depends on platform: reverse, blink, dark, concealed, underline, bold

Values of background color and additional effect may be omitted: * TLDR_COLOR_DESCRIPTION="white" for white text on default system background color without any effects * TLDR_COLOR_NAME="cyan dark" for dark cyan text on default system background color * TLDR_COLOR_PARAMETER="red on_yellow underline" for underlined red text on yellow background
