.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B cable
|
|
provides address, local feed, and bootstrap utilities. Its SDL2 chat client is
|
|
.BR cable-thang (1).
|
|
The CLI normalizes legacy
|
|
.B cabal://
|
|
and
|
|
.B cable://
|
|
room-address forms to canonical
|
|
.B cable://
|
|
addresses, preserving an optional
|
|
.B ?admin=\fI64-hex-key\fR
|
|
room moderation key. Raw 64-digit hexadecimal keys are accepted.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The room UI uses embedded S7 and S-expressions for its C-facing data model.
|
|
Cesspool handles peer discovery and transport, Sleep stores persistent local
|
|
feeds, and S7 represents room records as S-expressions. Hypercore and Cabal
|
|
CLI interoperability tools are test-only and are not production dependencies.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The historical JavaScript terminal client remains available as
|
|
.BR cabal-cli .
|
|
.SH COMMANDS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B --new
|
|
Create a new Cabal room, save its Ed25519 room signing key with mode 0600
|
|
under
|
|
.IR ~/.cable/rooms/<room-key>/room-secret.key ,
|
|
and print its reusable
|
|
.B cable://
|
|
address. Pass that address to
|
|
.BR cable-thang (1)
|
|
on this or another client.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI address " address"
|
|
Validate a Cabal/Cable/Hyper room address and print the key as
|
|
.B cable://
|
|
plus 64 lowercase hexadecimal digits, preserving any admin key.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI whoami " room-address"
|
|
Print the persistent local C-side user's
|
|
.B cable://
|
|
address in the selected room, creating that room's local keypair on first use.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI bootstrap " add host:port"
|
|
Persist a Cesspool rendezvous endpoint in
|
|
.IR ~/.config/dat-gpt/bootstrap .
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B bootstrap list
|
|
List configured Cesspool rendezvous endpoints.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI bootstrap " serve public-ipv4-host udp-port"
|
|
Run the legacy Cesspool rendezvous server in the foreground. For a persistent
|
|
node with a stable identity, service unit, and operator guidance, use

.B cable bootstrap add host:port
|
|
or CABLE_BOOTSTRAP.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.BI nick " room-address name"
|
|

|
|
is experimental and is not a Cabal Hypercore feed used by

|
.BR cable-thang .

|
|
Append a local C-side feed chat record.
