## 项目历史与用法

LocateMe is a small public-domain macOS command-line utility for printing the machine's location using Apple's geolocation services. It is package-nerd interesting because it exposes a GUI-era macOS location facility to shell scripts.

### 项目历史

Robert Harder's official LocateMe page describes the tool as a command-line program that returns latitude, longitude, and related fields through Apple's geolocation services. The page lists version 0.2.1 as the downloadable release and documents usage for custom output formats.

LocateMe belongs to the broader iHarder.net SourceForge project, which hosts open source and public domain Java, XML, and Cocoa utilities. SourceForge lists the project as public domain and as registered in 2001, while the LocateMe page carries its own compact version history.

### 采用历史

LocateMe's adoption appears to be modest and Mac-specific. Its value is in automation: scripts can ask the operating system for a location fix and format the result as coordinates, a Google Maps URL, XML-like text, or other shell-friendly output.

### 使用方式

The official installation instructions are intentionally simple: copy the `LocateMe` executable into a directory on the user's PATH, such as `/usr/local/bin`, or run it from the current directory as `./LocateMe`.

The command supports flags for help, Google Maps URL output, long multiline output, and custom formats with placeholders such as `{LAT}`, `{LON}`, `{ALT}`, `{HAC}`, and `{TIME}`. No official config or credentials file is documented.

### 为什么软件包爱好者会关心

LocateMe is a classic single-purpose Homebrew formula: a tiny binary wrapper around a platform feature that becomes more useful once it is installed into PATH.

Its public-domain status and small SourceForge-hosted release make it representative of older macOS command-line utilities that package managers keep discoverable long after their original release.

### 时间线

- 2001: The iHarder.net SourceForge project was registered.
- Unknown year: LocateMe v0.1 was the initial release.
- Unknown year: LocateMe v0.2 added custom output formats and Google Map URLs.
- Unknown year: LocateMe v0.2.1 fixed help text and more forcibly quit the app after finding location.
