- Run a program with file redirections defined in `~/.config/boxxy/boxxy.yaml`:
`boxxy {{program}}`
- Scan your home directory for rule suggestions:
`boxxy scan`
- Trace what files a program touches and save a report in `boxxy-report.txt` in the current directory:
`boxxy {{[-t|--trace]}} {{program}}`
- Pass a redirection rule directly on the terminal:
`boxxy {{[-r|--rule]}} {{path/to/file_or_directory}}:{{path/to/redirection}}:{{file|directory}} {{program}}`
- View the config file:
`boxxy config`
- Display help:
`boxxy -h`
