Awesome, indeed.
Other classics: dumping the memory of an active process (check my GitHub utils repo, I have it there) and redirecting the standard output AFTER you've started a process.
- kazinator 12y agoAh, dumping memory. I once took the dump-and-restart code from GNU Emacs, and planted it into GNU Make. I was then able to read a large and complex Makefile (consisting of included sub-Makefiles throughout a large tree) which took 30 seconds to process, dump the image to disk (with make --dump), and then use the dump to run incremental builds which were able to kick off build recipes almost instantly!
- agumonkey 12y agoTalk about some dark magic (to me at least). Well, not that dark, turns out people wrote about it here http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/DumpingEmacs http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/DumpingEmacs
- ttsiodras 12y agoAmazing - you must blog about it! I only wish that in a site called 'Hacker News', it would be technical comments like yours at the top of this discussion. Oh well...
