Hope this helps! Cheers, Joost woman(1) Improvement for manual self-support utilities woman(1) NAME woman - an emotionally responsive system support interface SYNOPSIS (undocumented.) OPTIONS --do-what-I-mean The only option to woman, it is always implicitly enabled. DESCRIPTION Woman is a powerful and highly seductive control application, dressed up as a pretty tool to suit your needs and desires. USAGE The user may start a conversation at any time. If there is a telephone device available, there are no spatial limitations. Instead of boring you with dull technical details, woman will tell you what it feels like and what colour of dress would go best with it. For continued correct functioning, woman needs regular attention and casual gifts. Woman becomes unresponsive when upset for some reason or no reason at all. When this happens, woman returns "you know what I mean" on all requests, until the mood passes, for some reason or no reason at all. FILES Woman does not keep any files, but remembers everything you type. SEE ALSO girlfriend(6), gifts(5), sex(8), marriage(7), mistress(4) BUGS There are no bugs. Woman meticulously hides all of them. AUTHOR Unknown to man.
