footclient(1)

# NAME
footclient - start new terminals in a foot server

# SYNOPSIS
*footclient* [_OPTIONS_]++
*footclient* [_OPTIONS_] <_command_> [_COMMAND OPTIONS_]

All trailing (non-option) arguments are treated as a command, and its
arguments, to execute (instead of the default shell).

# DESCRIPTION

*footclient* is used together with *foot*(1) in *--server*
mode.

Running it without arguments will open a new terminal window (hosted
in the foot server), with your default shell. The exit code will be
that of the terminal (thus, *footclient* does not exit until the
terminal has terminated).
