There's this thing called ux... John's program has a nice one, diff and curl and bash (used together in the way indicated here) have a terrible one.

  I said "similar", I use plan9 so my shell script would have been slight different and my interface cleaner. Using a 1970s TTY in the 21st century is dumb.

    How does plan9 help make your interface cleaner?
    • SixSigma 12y ago
      Because I can use the built in plumber to do more interesting things. The terminal scrolls, I can send commands from the mouse interface. I would enhance the shell script a bit to output a few more commands, should I need them. If it was a tool I used regularly I could sharpen it.

        If you got it sharp enough would you share it?
        • SixSigma 12y ago
          Sure. But I have no interest in doing it right now. You can look at my shell script HTTP client if you like. http://plan9.bell-labs.com/sources/contrib/maht/rc/httplib.rc http://plan9.bell-labs.com/sources/contrib/maht/rc/httplib.r... and some of my other plan9 code http://plan9.bell-labs.com/sources/contrib/maht/ http://plan9.bell-labs.com/sources/contrib/maht/
