Exit Status
0: Success.
1: Failed to parse command line arguments.
2: Attribute is not set to any value (get only).
3: Error communicating with the server.
4: Error writing to standard output.
Notes
Attribute values may contain arbitrary UTF-8, including control characters. Proceed with caution when reading and printing variable values.
Only certain attributes can be set or cleared from within terminals. Attempting to set or clear other attributes will have no effect.
termy-query uses escape sequences that are specific to TermySequence. Running under other terminal emulators will have undefined results.
termy-query is an alias for termy-server; both functions are implemented by the same binary.
