Miscellaneous

A collection of potentially useful scripts and support files that don't fit into my other projects.

A few quick notes:

  • The commands given to execute the scripts use wget to pipe the script into a anonymous file descriptor (temporary "file"). This eliminates the need for external cleanup because the shell automatically handles it.
  • These scripts have been tested on bash 4.3+ only. While they should work on all recent Unix shells, don't run them on anything important without verifying that they work with your chosen shell. *This means that they will not work on Mac OSX by default. Fortunately, fixing that is incredibly easy. Just follow the instructions here: https://github.com/Toberumono/Miscellaneous/wiki/Installing-Bash-4.3-on-Mac-OSX
  • Any script marked with "This is a Linux-only script." is Linux-only for a reason. You will break a lot of stuff if you try to run them on OSX.
  • If you think that you've found a bug in any of these, and you know how to fix it, create a pull request!
  • The scripts assume that your system has wget. If running which wget in Terminal does not print a path, you will need to install it.
    • For Linux, install it with your preferred package manager. Running sudo apt-get install wget (Ubuntu, Debian-based Linux in general) or sudo yum install wget (Fedora, RedHat-based Linux in general) should work.
    • For Mac, install Homebrew and run brew install wget.
