Command Line

festivald takes in --flags for many purposes.

Arguments passed to festivald will always take priority over the same configuration options read from disk.

festivald also has a signal sub-command. For example, to send a signal to a festivald running on the same local machine, you can run:

./festivald signal --play

All these "signal"-related --flags live in the signal sub-command.
