# Usage
By default, `anybar_rs` assumes that Anybar is bound to localhost on UDP port 1738. Call it like so:  
`anybar_rs [FLAGS] [OPTIONS] <COMMAND>`  
**FLAGS**:  
    `-h`, `--help`       Prints help information  
    `-V`, `--version`    Prints version information  

**OPTIONS**:  
    `-p`, `--port` <PORT>    Set destination UDP port. Input must be 0 – 6553, and defaults to 1738  

**ARGS**:  
    `COMMAND`    The command you wish to send to Anybar  

Where `COMMAND` is one of the following:

- white
- red
- orange
- yellow
- green
- cyan
- blue
- purple
- black
- question
- exclamation
- quit


# Exit codes
Being a stateless protocol, UDP provides no mechanism for checking whether its datagrams arrive.

- If the UDP datagram is succesfully *sent*, `anybar_rs` will exit with code `0`.
- Unknown flags, options, or an unknown `command` will print the usage and exit with code `1`.
