Usage

motdyn [subcommand] [options]

Where:

• install places a script (/etc/profile.d/motdyn.sh) to run motdyn on login (root privileges).
• uninstall removes that script, stopping MOTD from running automatically.
• status checks if the script is currently installed.
• (no subcommand) prints the dynamic MOTD immediately.
• -v, --verbose shows additional details.
