@nixCraft has written clear and consise instructions on many sh commands both internal {sh bash csh ksh} & external

Here's an example of the usage of dd an important powerful command which does everything the Unix way.

Here you're taught how to use dd safely to clone drive images. ddrescue dcfldd are also covered

You can use dd in any shell you like. You can also use them in your BSD OS

cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-unix-c

The screencap shows a shot of a terminal window with a light background. The terminal window displays text related to copying data using the  dd  command in Linux. At the top, a title reads "How to copy data using the  dd  command in Linux Unix" Below that, there is a line indicating the last update was on September 10, 2024. The main body of the screenshot appears to show a command-line interface with the  dd  command being used, although the exact details of the command are partially obscured. Below the main body is a section titled "Comments". Lastly, a small icon of a penguin is located in the lower-left corner of the image.

I will continue my journey in Julia an awsome programming language, which I have extensive tweet series that I still need to convert to the fediverse format.

I tweeted as I studied blocks of the language. I love the structure of Julia

Here is a start on JuliaLang

docs.julialang.org/en/v1/

🖋️ #julia #julialang #bash #sh #zsh #ksh #csh #Linux #BSD #POSIX #Programming

The image shows a web page for the Julia programming language documentation, specifically for version 1.11. The page has a dark background with a header that includes the Julia logo and a navigation menu on the left side. The main content area features a title "Julia 1.11 Documentation" and a welcome message. Below the title, there is a note about the documentation being available in PDF format. The page also includes a section titled "Important Links" with a list of useful resources such as the Julia homepage, installation instructions, and YouTube channel. The "Introduction" section provides a brief overview of the language's performance and its suitability for scientific computing. The page is structured with a sidebar containing links to various documentation sections like "Manual," "Base," and "Developer Documentation."The image shows a web page for the Julia programming language. The page is titled "Installing Julia" and provides instructions for installing the language. The page is primarily black with white and red text. The top of the page includes a browser tab with the URL "https://julialang.org/install" and a navigation bar with links to various sections such as "Docs," "Learn," "Blog," "Community," and "Contribute." The main content area includes a section titled "Installing Julia," which explains the recommended way to install Julia using a small, self-contained binary. It provides a command-line installation instruction using cURL and mentions that it will install the latest stable version of Julia. The page also includes a section titled "Official domains," listing the official domains for Julia, and a note about IP address retention policy.

Being thankful is important, esp. when you use opensource software.

I'm thankful to the coder(s) of gping a command which sends a nice graphical output in *sh when you invoke it of the ping reponses of your favourite server

In the same line I again want to thank the coder(s) of httping which can send you ping responses in an awsome way

I had spoken about httping before

Thank you all

The image shows a computer screen with a terminal window open, displaying network latency data. The terminal window is titled "mocp" and shows a ping test to the server "ftp.sunet.se" with various latency measurements in milliseconds, such as 277.41ms, 262.225ms, and 247.04ms. The background of the terminal window features a green digital rain effect, which is a visual representation of data being processed. Below the terminal window, there is a timestamp indicating the time as 11:49:09, and a video player interface is visible at the bottom, showing a timestamp of 11:49:24. The video player is paused, and the video displays a rural scene with a structure resembling a gazebo and trees. The overall color scheme of the image is dark, with green text and graphics contrasting against a black background.The image shows a detailed network performance analysis tool interface, likely from a command-line application. The interface displays various metrics and graphs related to network activity. At the top, there are columns labeled "latest," "mocp," "avg," "max," "sd," "mc-a," "cur," "cafe," and "RemAD," with data such as "resolve," "connect," "ssl," "send," "request," "close," and "total" presented in numerical values. The graph at the bottom shows a timeline of HTTP responses, with green bars indicating successful responses (200 OK) and red bars for failed attempts. The HTTP response code is "200 OK," and the SSL fingerprint is "n/a." The "Last-Modified" timestamp is "Thu, 10 Apr 2025 15:18:21 GMT," and the "Expires" timestamp is "Tue, 23 Sep 2025 15:08:53 GMT." The "Content-Type" is "text/html; charset=UTF-8." The interface also shows the run time, which is "2025/09/23 12:07:33.408," and the total number of requests, "4341751." The graph indicates a high frequency of successful responses, with a few failed attempts. Provided by @altbot, generated privately and locally using Ovis2-8B 🌱 Energy used: 0.903 Wh

If I've never seen the codebase, which #Linux shell has the easiest code to read and understand? Specifically I want to isolate the code for *parsing* the command line syntax.

All #POSIX-compliant (or close enough) shells welcome! I probably don't know them all but off the top of my head:

#bash
#dash
#fish (sorry for the spam, marine life enthusiasts)
#zsh
#ksh
#tcsh & #csh I think?

#shell #shells #foss #code #commandline

Someone casually dropped a URL for a place where some wonderful shell based goodies are discussed

I went to the URL and I got a few beautiful fantastic and sexy programs purely for *sh

So whether you like csh ksh zsh tksh fish sh or any shell which I may or may not have heard of, these programs will run in them

httping horst

These two are making my day

Check their man pages on the internet.

httping looks gorgeous with the -K switch

I will update this toot with an output of the commands. I shall make the screen caps on my Linux machine

horst outputs sensitive data on the first page so I chose another innocent output

In this one I use a bit of networking to get to the SBC via ssh, invoke my trusted sh player (I use it for many decades) output the audio via a audio interface to a 16 channel insturment mixer, which is connected to the Yamaha mixing console, which then sends it via a couple of AUX busses to the effect rack, where I put a Delay Reverb combo on it, return that signal back, then mix it with the output, after which the audio is sent analog to the different destinations I have in the house

When it comes down to weather from the shell, no service is so smooth than wttr.in

It is so great to see that both in {ba{c{k{z}sh}}}}} and in browsers the output is smooth and fast.

Naturally the shell has a blistering response

#wttr #weather #openSource #bash #csk #ksh #zsh #sh

The image shows a computer desktop with a weather report application open in the foreground. The application displays detailed weather forecasts for the next few days, including temperature, precipitation, and cloud cover. The weather report is for Johan Adolph Peengel International Airport, located in Surabaya, Indonesia? (no SR/ SA). The application shows a mix of partly cloudy and light rain conditions, with temperatures ranging from 27°C to 30°C. The time displayed on the desktop is 13:49. In the background, there is a web browser open with a weather report page titled "Weather report plm," and the URL "wttr.in" is visible. The desktop background features a serene image of a lake with trees, and the wallpaper is set to a blue gradient. The taskbar at the bottom of the screen shows various icons, including a file manager, a terminal, and a music player? The terminal window is open, displaying some text, and the music player is labeled "metalloddd." The desktop environment appears to be a BSD-based system, as indicated by the title bar.
