Tempest for Eliza¹ was doing the rounds some years ago. I'm sure there were other implementations in the wild, but I can't remember their names. 1. http://www.erikyyy.de/tempest/

I’ve been using tpope’s excellent unimpaired.vim¹ to handle toggling paste for me², but will probably switch as vim-bracketed-paste is automatic. I only bring up unimpaired.vim as it provides a whole heap of neat mappings for other toggles

I had largely given up on gnuplot because of my inability to produce pretty images. However, after being pointed to http://www.gnuplotting.org/ and seeing the beautiful images there I’ve started using it again. And, yeah

If you're a zsh user you can also use the other zshparam(1) stuff too. Like "mv file.ext{,(:r)}" to perform "mv file.ext file", or :l to lowercase a filename, or any number of other sometimes useful or often pointl

If I'm understanding you correctly, then imv[1] is a great tool for this. 'imv $filename' pops you in to a readline enabled prompt to edit $filename. Given that it is readline you can even add extra options in your ~/.

Not disputing your point, but some of that extra code does allow you to do cool things. Add a `-k -b=-{n}` to see a previous boot's dmesg, or filtering with `-k --until` for time filtering, &c. All with the same interface you&#x2

I'm in the UK, and always use yr.no for overviews. I love the occasions when a .no site uses their heavy snow icon for what passes for a blizzard around here. And, I (ab)use the sites of local folk who have their weather stations and

I have -- what I believe are -- similar misgivings when there are supermoon stories doing the rounds in the press or social media. Part of me wants to rant about the insignificance whenever someone mentions it, and part of me just wants to

mboxstats[1] is pretty good for this if you're fetching the monthly archives from the web interface and desire a quick overview. It supports mbox and maildir, and can produce XML output for easier post-processing. The mboxstats author

atsaloli already gave a good answer, but I'll add that the date is in the PDF's metadata. fex, poppler provides pdfinfo which shows the creation date of 2007-01-15. Your viewer probably has an option to show it too.

Good example for me with Cyber Candy, I've walked by one countless times but didn't think of it. I'll make a U-turn here and say that I agree with you about using made up words, but for a different reason. I'd probably

It feels weird replying like this to someone in the UK(according to your profile), but... Since the original story broke I've been thinking that I would have granted the Candy trademark, but perhaps I'm being too short sighted. To

Not sure where the cut off is or should be, but it doesn't feel standard to me. On my anecdotal desktop install there are two packages that use cmake; awesome and taskwarrior. Grep'ing the ebuilds on this Gentoo box, shows me ~400

You can see what people using canonical email addresses are contributing[1]. If you look at the changesets you can also also see the type of changes they're upstreaming, many are simply one liners for hardware support. Hardware suppo

A naïve "wc -l /.[ch]" gives ~16.5 million for my lightly patched 3.13 tree. sloccount[1] which aims to count actual LoC says ~12 million(97% C) for the same tree. Neither are a truly accurate measure, so help yourself to a
