C(1) General Commands Manual C(1) NAME c - genericised soft drink generator (ie coffee, coke etc) SYNOPSIS c [-s[number]] [-m[type]] [-e] [-i] [-T] [-S amount] [--other=drink] DESCRIPTION This manual page documents the GNU version of c. c is a genericised soft drinks engine designed to provide a stream of the desired beverage on the standard output. By default, c makes coffee, white, no sugar. This is a historical choice based on the authors preferences. This behaviour is controlled by the options, and a wide range of other drinks are possible. Please note that not all combinations make sense, in taste terms, but that parsing by c extends only to syntax. Experiment at your own risk. OPTIONS -s[number] Specifies the number of sugars desired. If this option is omitted, none will be included. Excessively large values will result in unpleasant side ef- fects, including rotting teeth and excess weight. If this option is specified with no parameter, the default is one. -m[type] Determines whether milk will be used or not. The default cor- responds to the specification 'cold'. cold - Normal, cold milk hot Normal, hot milk frth Frothed milk (see -e option for cappucino) none No milk. Recommended for those who have a deadline. goat Use your imagination. -e Espresso option. High pressure steam is forced through fine ground dark beans for a stronger brew; careful use of the -S option is advised to avoid shaky hands and heart palpitations (see BUGS). -i Iced coffee. Self explanatory really... -T Turkish coffee. The only type of coffee that is boiled de- liberately. -s2 or more recommended to avoid grimaces. -S[amount] Size of the virtual 'mug' to be filled. The scale used is fairly arbitrary, but should cover most cases... 1 thimble- ful 2 espresso cup 3 cafe-style coffee cup 4 office mug 5 sysadmin mug 6 bucket Use of -S 6 is contraindicated for use with n(1), due to pos- sible damage to t he nasal membranes, and risk of drown- ing. The default is 4; unless a beta version of the OS is in- stalled, when the default is 5. If the beta is of Digital UNIX, 6 is the default; you'll need it. --other=drink Specify a drink other than coffee. Use of other options is not recommended; the behaviour is unspecified! BUGS Caffeine overdose can result by inadvised combinations of options (ie -e and large values for -S). If you suffer >from increased heart rate, visual disturbance, shaking hands, shortness of breath, it is suggested that you discontinue use. A -d (decaf) option was included in previous versions, but was removed after a threatened litigation arising from an unfortunate practical joke involving misuse.
