Back from outing: getting out of #fish is really hard. Tried going back to #bash (even with #blesh), tried #OilShell and none of them really work (failed bug reports). Sad. Anybody know about actually working POSIX-compatible interactive shell which actually works and at least from distance can compete with fish?
I was going to make a funny joke that I was going to create a #bash utility called "splain" so I could "man splain" what it's for...
but it already exists, from perl-diagnostics (1995).
And "man splain" returns:
"produce verbose warning diagnostics"
🤯
According to Merriam-Webster:
"The splain of mansplain isn't new. It's been used to mean "explain" in texts showing informal speech or—as when Ricky Ricardo admonished his beloved in I Love Lucy—in imperfect English for at least a century."
Nous cherchons des personnes #mal-voyantes ou #aveugles qui s'intéressent à la ligne de commande #bash, pour voir si elle seraient prêtes à essayer notre librairie pour son #accessibilite.
Il y a déjà 13 commandes à tester.
Au delà des problèmes de vue, cette librairie peut faciliter la vie d'un public plus large, puisqu'elle filtre les sorties de commandes pour les réduire à l'essentiel.
Pour cette 13ème édition de la journée mondiale de sensibilisation à l'accessibilité #a11y, ARN, @hackstub et le groupe a11y-libre, propose à toutes les personnes qui pratiquent la ligne de commande, un hackaton « asynchrone » sur le thème « ligne de commande et cécité » !

Nowadays terminals and other text views can get rendered with GPU acceleration support, like the kitty terminal that I use.
🤔 That means we could get bloom, chromatic aberration, distortion, depth of field and other post process effects into our terminals, what are we waiting for?
Sometimes I'm busy and can't read at that moment, so I save the article/news as plain text in a PDF file to read it later. It works most of the time, but it's not perfect.
You'll need: torsocks (optional), lynx and LibreOffice installed.
Save it as a #bash file like "pdf.sh", make it executable with "chmod +x pdf.sh" and then use it like this:
We just released Execa 9, which is our biggest release so far.
If you're currently using Execa, you should check out the new features! Also, if you're currently using zx or Bun shell, you might be interesting in this alternative.
Any good cli/terminal spell checking programmes? Pass in a file, get an terminal interactive “replace this with that / ignore / add to dict.” workflow.
I remember using aspell(1) back in Ye Olden Days. Is that still the best?
A one-liner for exporting your Conda environments for re-creation on another machine… but you might want to have a look at whether you actually need to recreate those environments.
for envs in $(conda env list | egrep -v "^#" | awk '{print $1}'); do echo "Exporting environment: $envs"; conda activate $envs; conda env export --no-builds | egrep -v "^prefix" > "$envs.yaml"; conda deactivate $envs; done; ls -l *.yaml
reading the tzselect shell script from the tzdata, there is a nice flag called -c to specify coordinates, the way the script does gps coordinates to timezones in awk is pretty impressive!
so if you travel a lot and have no idea where you are located and want to set your timezone quite easily you can do something like this to approximately know where you are (it's useless i know, just interesting):
