Subject: [9front] vt(1): document ability to pass a command
Date: Wed, 27 Jan 2021 23:35:41 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAHjwAux2ZTRmnzU6rCgBEOBvTXrbZt7p1fFoxZ6COzTtjeqT-g@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

went into the source to add this at some point and was glad to find it
already there, but it doesn't seem to be documented yet. The following
patch fixes that (though I'm not thrilled with the wording; open to
suggestions there).
