OP here, CMD Résumé was something I created to make my job applications stand out when I was just starting professional work and seeing jQuery Terminal (https://terminal.jcubic.pl/). Despite a few "that's neat" from people, I don't think it really helped but over the year I have used it as a playground to try out technologies.

The pdf command printed a Wikipedia link to the resume page. Are you making a joke (that I’m not getting)? Or is this a bug?

I didn't know where to point it, so I just used the Wikipedia page as a placeholder. I created a PDF and am adding it in now :)

Sure let the recruiters and prospected employers do some work to get to your data.

Good point, I did think of having a command that essentially output everything in one hit.

Perhaps you want nothing to do with a recruiter that cannot see the value here.

This is a very eerie coincidence... Last week, I started to put up my own website[0], which I intend to initially serve as my online resume (after many years of relying on LinkedIn), and then later on to host my writings/blogs. This CLI/console mode was one of the ideas I had but later decided to defer it because it will take time from my other priorities. But now, thanks to your work, I won't need to spend so much time for it. Thank you for sharing this!

I am glad you found this useful! The resume is based on JSON Resume[0] which has a nifty tool which lets you generate from your LinkedIn profile [1]. Hope this helps!

As a non-programmer, I’d like also very much to see something like that applied to some kind of personal Wikipedia.

What kind of things would you have it provide?

Your page does not summon the on screen keyboard in iPadOS.

Thanks for the feedback, unfortunately it isn’t overly mobile friendly but I didn’t realise it didn’t work at all on iPadOS.

Alternative is the finger command in Unix like systems and CMD.

Not sure I follow sorry.

I know the command just not sure what your suggestion is sorry

The PDF command returns a Wikipedia link

Placeholder link, fixing :)
