-“Seek not to walk the path of the masters; seek what they sought.”
-– Matsuo Basho
+overgrown - trinity's harakit workshop
 
-The Bonsai harakit utilities are a replacement for standard POSIX utilities
-which aim to fill its niche while expanding on their capabilities. These new
-tools are the result of the careful examination of the current state of POSIX
-and Unix utilies. The Unix Philosophy of “do one thing and do it well” are their
-core but they avoid clinging to the past.
-
-The era of the original Unix tools has been long and fruitful, but they have
-their flaws. This project originated from frustrations with the way certain
-tools work and how other projects that extend POSIX don’t make anything better.
-
-This project will not follow in the footsteps of GNU; extensions of POSIX will
-not be found here. GNU extensions are a gateway to the misuse of the shell. The
-harakit utilities will intentionally discourage use of the shell for purposes
-beyond its scope.
-
-See docs/ for more on the specific utilities currently implemented.
-
-Building
-
-Harakit utilities require a POSIX-compliant environment to compile, including a
-C compiler and preprocessor (cc(1) and cpp(1) by default), an edition 2023 Rust
-compiler (rustc(1) by default), bindgen(1), and a POSIX-compliant make(1)
-utility.
-
-To build and install:
+simple build, no dependencies except rust
 
+# pkg_add rust rust-bindgen
 $ make
-$ make PREFIX="/your/preferred/location" install
-
-To build with a different compiler than the default:
-
-$ make CC=clang
-$ make RUSTC=gccrs
-
-To test the utilities:
-
-$ make test
-
-To remove all build and distributable files:
-
-$ make clean

+.TH SIMEXEC 1 2024-07-23 "Harakit-overgrown X.X.X"
+.SH NAME
+simexec \(en execute a program with argv
+.\"
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+
+simexec
+.B binary argv...
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Execute a binary with a certain argv.
+.SH CAVEATS
+
+Non-binary programs cannot be executed on their own. The PATH environment
+variable is not used and a valid pathname (relative or absolute) must be
+specified.
+
+.BR simexec (1)
+requires caution.
+.B argv
+are not just the operands for the binary but in fact the direct
+.B argv
+it will receive in runtime;
+the first argv entry is the program\(cqs name, and omitting this, though valid
+use of
+.BR simexec (1),
+can break false assumptions made by programmers.
+for example, the
+.BR true (1)
+implementation in the GNU coreutils project suffers a segmentation fault it is
+given no argv[0].
+
+While POSIX.1-2017 doesn't mandate there being an argv[0] per se, a Strictly
+Conforming POSIX Application must pass an argv[0]. It has also been said that
+those who do not pass an argv[0] are mean and nasty and smell of elderberries.
+
+.BR simexec (1)
+directly uses the
+.BR execv (3p)
+library function. It cannot execute shell scripts intelligently (via shebang).
+It is inadviseable to use
+.BR simexec (1)
+to simply execute a program when other methods would suffice.
+.\"
+.SH DIAGNOSTICS
+
+.BR simexec (1)
+exits with the returned value of
+.BR execv (3p),
+which will be 255 if an error occurs in execution, such as the binary not being
+found.
+This is indistinguishable from the executed binary exiting with the same
+status.
+
+Simexec will print a error message and return the proper
+.BR sysexits.h (3)
+value if invoked in an invalid manner.
