It defaults to

if no output path is passed.

Pass - to have
.Nm
read from stdin or write to stdout.
.Pp
2022-11-30 11:01:13 +00:00
Never use the presence of the output file to check for success.
Always use the exit status of
.Nm d2
.Ns .
This is because sometimes when errors occur while rendering, d2 still write out a partial
render anyway to enable iteration on a broken diagram.
