1970s Unix command line tools: Are we a joke to you?

[-] CallMeAl@piefed.zip 7 points 1 day ago

I looked at your code and I can't see anything that this does that I can't already do with standard shell utils. Looks like a nice project for your learning but not something anyone else should use.

yeah, I just wanted to share a school project

[-] metw0@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

oh, btw you seem to know your stuff... maybe I should make a CLI runner for bash/python scripts ? I think it would be a useful little tool, wouldn't it ?

[-] CallMeAl@piefed.zip 1 points 1 day ago

I don't know what you mean by CLI runner. What would it do?

[-] metw0@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

oh, sorry I didn't explain. To put it as simply as possible - I have all kinds of little bash scripts and a few python ones. It's a real hassle to run them manually, so I decided to make a simple CLI to make this task easier. Something like that, I guess

You mean like a shell alias?

alias scriptname=long_shitty_command

[-] CallMeAl@piefed.zip 2 points 1 day ago

sorry I guess I'm not following. Can you give an example of how using your tool to run scripts would be different than running them manually? It be great if you can show what a command line session would actually look like.

nvm, I'm going to do it either way. you can check it (when I finish), if you want ))
