.SH SYNOPSIS
.P
\fBviper\fP [<optional>\|\.\.\.]

Various versions numbers for Node, Electron, Viper and so on\.
.P
\fB\-\-cli\fP
Forces the CLI to activate, meaning the GUI will never run\.
What purpose this has I frankly do not know\.
.P
\fB\-\-update\fP
Updates Northstar, this uses your \fBviper\.json\fP to determine the location, it also won't try to update if the installed version of Northstar is already the newest, if you must re\-install Northstar you can delete the \fBns_version\.txt\fP file in the game path\.
.P

Launches Northstar, this is currently only supported on Windows\.
If you must launch Vanilla you can run \fB\-\-launch=vanilla\fP

\fB\-\-setpath\fP=<absolute\-path>
Sets the game path, this'll change the \fBgamepath\fP variable in your \fBviper\.json\fP, note that it only takes in absolute paths and not relative ones\.
.SH CONFIGURATION
.P
All configuration takes place in your \fBviper\.json\fP file, this file may be in various locations depending on your platform, for Linux you're likely to find it at:
