New GitHub repo: "cfklp"
— Monday, August 26, 2013cfklp is my new minimal LaTeX replacement thing. The idea is to create a printable document from a text file which requires minimal (if any) formatting.

(0 Comments)I wrote a minimal spreadsheet thingy in Awk. You can find it here.
(0 Comments)There's hardly a message or overarching moral to this entry. I simply thought this information was interesting...
uptime(1) tells you how long the system has been up, but you can also discover at what time the machine was started:
$ sysctl kern.boottime
Get nothing but load averages:
$ sysctl -n vm.loadavg
By default, NetBSD does not forward network packets, you have to turn it on yourself:
# sysctl -w net.inet.ip.forwarding=1
And if you use IPv6:
# sysctl -w net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1
I've never had a need for this, but it appears you can adjust almost anything you want about NetBSD's in-kernel debugger:
$ sysctl -a | grep ^ddb
ddb.radix = 16
ddb.maxoff = 1048576
ddb.maxwidth = 80
ddb.lines = 24
ddb.tabstops = 8
ddb.onpanic = 0
ddb.fromconsole = 1
ddb.tee_msgbuf = 0
ddb.commandonenter =
If you've enabled Linux emulation, you can see which version you're running:
$ sysctl -a | grep emul.linux.kern
emul.linux.kern.ostype = Linux
emul.linux.kern.osrelease = 2.6.18
emul.linux.kern.osversion = #0 Wed Mar 3 03:03:03 PST 2010
Oh yeah, don't forget to use sysctl -d
if you don't understand what a
particular field means! I really wish audioctl and mixerctl had similar
functionality.
Just FYI, some of my dotfiles are now available on GitHub.
(0 Comments)Yeah, I'm in a GitHub mood these days. Mainly because Chisel shut down (but the website is STILL up??). Anyway, I created pless, a screen-oriented pager. It's like less(1) except better.
