+# tldr-bash-client
+
+**A fully-functional [bash](https://tiswww.case.edu/php/chet/bash/bashtop.html)
+client for the [tldr](https://github.com/rprieto/tldr/) project, providing
+poignant examples of terminal commands.**
+
+## Installation
+
+Download the tldr bash script to the install location:
+
+```bash
+location=/usr/local/bin/tldr  # elevated privileges needed for some locations
+sudo wget -qO $location https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pepa65/tldr-bash-client/master/tldr
+sudo chmod +x $location
+```
+
+If the location is not in $PATH, you need to specify the path to run it.
+
+### Prerequisites
+coreutils, less, grep, unzip, curl / wget
+
+## Usage
+
+```
+ USAGE: tldr [option] [platform/]<command>
+
+ platform/command:           Show page for command (from platform)
+
+ platform is optionally one of: common, linux, osx, sunos
+
+ option is optionally one of:
+  -l, --list [platform]:      Show all available pages (from platform)
+  -r, --render <file>:        Render a local file as tldr markdown
+  -m, --markdown <command>:   Show the markdown source for command
+  -c, --cache:                Cache all pages by downloading archive from repo
+  -u, --update:               Re-download index file from repo
+  [-h, -?, --help]:           This help overview
+
+ All pages and the index are cached locally under ~/.config/tldr.
+ By default, the cached copies will be re-downloaded after 60 days.
+```
+
+## Customisation
+The colors and other styling of the 5 elements of tldr pages can be modified
+either by editing the first few lines of the scipt, or by setting the following
+environment variables:
+* TLDR_TITLE_STYLE (defaults to: Newline Space Bold Yellow)
+* TLDR_DESCRIPTION_STYLE (defaults to: Space Yellow)
+* TLDR_EXAMPLE_STYLE (defaults to: Newline Bold Green)
+* TLDR_CODE_STYLE (defaults to: Space Bold Blue)
+* TLDR_VALUE_STYLE (defaults to: Bold Cyan)
