NAME
|
|
lsd - turn off your mind, relax, and float downstream
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
lsd [ -dsS ] brandname user ...
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
Disturbs the given users according to dosage, set, and setting.
|
|
If more than one user is specified, each will be affected by the
|
|
others, according to the arguments they give to lsd on their
|
|
own terminals or machines. It is recommended that one of the users
|
|
in a group specify a dose of 0, and that at least one other user be
|
|
experienced in using lsd.
|
|
|
|
Brandname is usually a blotter pattern, but may be used to specify
|
|
a non-blotter form, such as "windowpane" or "pyramid."
|
|
|
|
There are a number of options, each of which can have a strange and
|
|
not completely predictable effect on the users:
|
|
|
|
|
|
-d Dosage. A dosage of 1 to 3 is recommended for first time
|
|
users, although strength varies with brandname and storage
|
|
conditions.
|
|
|
|
-s Set. Recommended values are "calm," "happy," and "groovy."
|
|
Sets like "angry," "frustrated," and "bummed" may cause file
|
|
system damage, and should be avoided. For these sets, other
|
|
utilities are available (see "valium").
|
|
|
|
-S Setting. Recommended are "familiar," "interesting," and
|
|
"comfortable." Hostile and challenging settings are reserved
|
|
for experienced users.
|
|
|
|
FILES
|
|
/etc/trips is a log of system-wide use of lsd since booting.
|
|
|
|
BUGS
|
|
When invoked with incorrect arguments, lsd will print out a random,
|
|
Unixy-sounding error message and remove this man page. This policy
|
|
prevents misuse by undergraduates and fundamentalist Christians.
|
|
|
|
User state should return to normal in twelve hours or less after
|
|
invoking lsd. With extreme parameters, however, this cannot always
|
|
be guaranteed.
|
|
|
|
The output device is assumed to be 80 columns wide.
